Thank you in advance for reading the following article about the more popular
trends that are growing right now in the hospitality field. Please share your
thoughts with some comments at the end.

Top Hospitality Trends

Spa Facilities
The hottest trend going in hotels is the spa, the
more luxurious the spa the happier the guest. Be it guests staying just the
night, or for meeting, or just for the weekend, they all want to hit the spa,
even if only for an hour at the end of the day.
Big Spender’s Big
Demands
Luxury is back, guests are demanding luxury, first-class amenities and added
value in return for their money. Flat screen televisions, luxurious bath soaps,
superior bed and bath linens, spa service, expectations are at their
peek.
Breakfast is Back
The breakfast is fast regaining its
popularity. Comfort food, eggs cooked to order, and healthy options with low in
fat and high in protein and nutrition. French toast and waffles are a growing
trend. New takes on breakfast basics, such as the Lemon Souffl?ancakes, are
becoming more and more popular
Quiet, please.
This is said to be a
very dominant factor when selecting a hotel or resort. There is a partiality for
quiet or soundproofed rooms, along with noise reduction windows and
walls.
Leisure Travel to Grow
Leisure Travel is expected to grow
despite economic challenges in year ahead. Short getaways
of four nights or less remain the most popular vacations and represent over half
of all vacations taken by leisure travelers.
The Business
Traveler
The newest traveler and spender on the block is the business
traveler. With the economy on the rise and big salaries the economical business
traveler has started spending big for amenities like individual service, great
restaurants and bars, luxurious spas and specialization in g high-end
conferences.
Big Corporate Spending
Going on advance bookings for
corporate conferences from 20% to 50% over the start of the year, spending on
company meetings is definitely on the rise Corporations are spending more and
more to gather people together to launch, strengthen and accelerate
initiatives. They are also providing their staff and customers full service
hospitality environments for work and leisure
Competition
Clause
The “Competition clause” is now demanded more often in contracts,
precluding the presence of competitors anywhere on the hotel property while a
company’s executives are present. As competition within industries is fierce
and industrial espionage is a big concern.
WiFi
WiFiis no longer
a luxury or a convenience, it is now apparently as a necessity, it is not only
expected, but is supposed to be free of charge. It’s expected that a guest can
log on and access email or the office from anywhere in the hotel.
Online
Booking
This is a major trend, the majority 66% of travelers go solely to
the Internet when planning a future vacation, while 57% report making reservations online.
Designer
Website
Your website will be the first thing the guest will see, as
mentioned that the majority of travelers go to the Internet to look and book the
hotel. So be sure that it has both quality and is has online booking
facilities.
