Proper Guest Boundaries and Expectations can Give Your Hospitality Property an Advantage

A former Florida innkeeper once said, “Transparency is always the best policy when it comes to guests at your property. Even the smallest inconvenience can become a huge point of contention if the guest feels they’ve been misled. Likewise, even large inconveniences become manageable if they’re expected. Give the guest an opportunity to cancel, and they might! But those are the guests who would have left angry and posted about it on Google, so it’s for the best in the end.”

Gift Shops: A Creative Way to add Revenue to Your Hospitality Business

Many people choose to pursue careers in the hospitality industry because they are passionate about serving other people and giving them memorable experiences.  The primary goal for lodging professionals is making sure their guests have a comfortable and relaxing stay at their property.  This involves adding high-quality bedding, amenities, food, and beverages.  One of the best compliments a property owner can hear from a customer is that they enjoyed something in the property so much that they would like to have one for themselves.  This could be sheets, towels, robes, amenities like shampoo or conditioner, etc.  Luckily, guests can have their wishes fulfilled and the business can add a stream of revenue if the property offers their desired products for purchase.  Sheets are generally the most popular item guests look for, and this blog will primarily focus on how properties can implement a gift shop program for their guests.

Preserving Water In the Hospitality Community

Record-breaking heatwaves in the western regions of the United States have led to droughts and wildfires.  Fresh water is a resource many of us take for granted, and it is important that we continue to preserve it the best we can especially in places where water is scarce.  The hospitality industry uses a lot of water, so they have an important responsibility in doing their part to preserve it by taking all the necessary steps to limit their water usage.  This will have a positive impact on the community and the individual businesses as the water bills will be reduced.  It could be beneficial to look at the different ways water can be saved in the different locations of the property that use the most water.  This blog will analyze how water can be saved in the bathroom, the kitchen, the laundry room, and the outdoors.

The Emotional Effect Behind the Room Colors of Your Property

An often unwritten and overlooked skill for being an innkeeper or host is creativity.  Property managers need to be able to envision the design of all different kinds of rooms when opening a property or renovating an already existing property.  There are many furniture options to choose from, bedding linens to select, amenities needed to supply a property, and colors needed to design each room on the walls, ceilings, and floors.  The color of a room dictates what kind of moods your guests will develop.  Certain colors are more common in specific types of rooms, but the color you choose for your rooms can impact the atmosphere for your guest experience.  This blog will explain what different colors can represent, the mood they project, and which types of colors work best for different types of rooms.

Hospitality Industry Returning to Normal

It’s been a little over a year since the COVID-19 pandemic began.  Lots of change has occurred in many different industries since that time and hospitality is no exception.  People stopped traveling as frequently, didn’t go out to restaurants, and many large events like concerts and sports games were cancelled.  With vaccines getting distributed, it looks like life is slowly beginning to return to normal.  This is great news for property managers, innkeepers, and others working in the hotel, lodging, and rental property section of the hospitality industry.  With so many people choosing to not take a vacation over the past year, many experts are predicting a large volume of guests to be booking reservations at properties this coming summer.  This blog will explain how travel and guest stays are returning to normal, the emergence of short-term rental properties, and how a new demand for other types of businesses will form.
