In this article on Hospitality Net, Andrew Hopson, CHIA, CHT makes the case that in #hotels, #technology and people need to work hand in hand to deliver the best possible experience to guests. According to Andrew the #hospitality industry looks around the landscape to figure out the best ways to incorporate technology and remove the silos, it would appear the outside solution would be to tune out the outside noise and focus on what’s going on in house and what your guests are asking for. https://lnkd.in/edvtewRp

Thanks to HOTEL MANAGEMENT Magazine for letting me be a part of your Executive Roundtable Series. At this roundtable, we discussed Sustainability in Hospitality. This is one of the points I made at the roundtable: "Hotel companies, for the most part, do not own real estate. They're in the business of collecting fees, whether it's franchise or management fees." It was a great discussion between Jennifer Glatt, M.A., Justin Jabara, Beck Blasko (she/her), Gabby Buck, and Sage Patel. Read all about it in the article below 👇. #hotelindustry #hospitalityindustry

The 2024 Hunter Hotel Investment Conference has begun and brings new speakers, topics and perspectives. Here's what attendees can expect this week: #HOTELS #hotelnews #hospitalitynews #hospitalityindustry #hunterconference #hotelindustry

It is all too often I see posts about how “special” your hotel is. In a crowded marketplace, the quest to differentiate your hotel and captivate guests' attention is more crucial than ever. Standing out isn't just about offering amenities – it's about crafting memorable experiences that leave an indelible mark on your guests' hearts and minds. What is unique about your hotel that appeals to the broad masses, from leisure guests to corporate meeting planners? Here are some strategies to elevate your hotel and make it truly stand out: 1. Personalized Experiences: Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all hospitality. Today's guests crave personalized experiences tailored to their unique preferences and desires. From customized amenities to curated local experiences, showcase the personalization you can offer, depending on guests’ needs. 2. Embrace Authenticity: Authenticity is the cornerstone of memorable experiences. Showcase the distinct character and culture of your destination through thoughtful design, locally inspired cuisine, and genuine interactions. Let your hotel be a reflection of the vibrant tapestry of its surroundings. Every city has a story, right? 3. Community Engagement: Engage with the local community and forge meaningful partnerships that enrich the guest experience. Let the community help “sell” your hotel by spreading the word. Whether it's collaborating with local artisans, supporting charitable initiatives, or offering authentic cultural experiences, embrace the spirit of community and goodwill. 4. Exceptional Service: This is a big one. Even if your hotel is lacking in what your competitors offer, sometimes it all comes down to your service. Do you have a Front Office staff member who is constantly mentioned in Tripadvisor? Why not brag? Do you have a unique employee role on property such as a historian? Let everyone know! Service excellence is the hallmark of a truly standout hotel. I recently stayed in a hotel with a pillow menu. Guests could call to get a memory foam pillow or swap out for a down-alternative pillow or even have a water pillow delivered to your room. When a hotel tailors the experience to suit each individual’s needs, then you have a story to tell.   In a world of limitless hotel choices, it's the extraordinary experiences that leave a lasting impression. What strategies have you found effective in making your hotel stand out? Share your insights and experiences in the comments below! #HospitalityExcellence #HotelBranding #GuestExperience
