InnStyle has been in business long enough to have seen trends in the hospitality industry rise and fall. This is especially true for bedding in properties such as hotels, inns, and rental properties. However, one thing hasn’t changed: guests will always want comfort and quality.
That’s why those of us at InnStyle have decided to share rules for improving your return on investment in property bedding.
Last month, InnStyle looked at some emerging travel trends for the hospitality industry. But as anyone who works in the world of hotels can tell you, it’s a busy, busy field.
There are always new things to be aware of, which is why, for this blog, InnStyle has decided to share this list of hospitality industry 2017 trends, as put together by DJ Valluri of Lodging Interactive.
When you’ve been in business for more than 70 years, people come to you with questions.
For example, when would you suggest purchasing mattress toppers for our beds?
And the answer is that a mattress topper is something hotels, vacation rentals, and bed & breakfast owners should consider if they’ve just bought a new mattress, or are trying to salvage an older one.
As suppliers of linens and other goods to the hospitality industry, Innstyle knows it’s important to stay current on the 2017 travel trends within the industry and to make the necessary adjustments to the products being offered. That’s why InnStyle was eager to read a recent piece by Cliff Johnson of the Young Entrepreneur Council on this year’s up-and-coming travel trends. Here’s what’s happening this year, how your property can adjust, and how InnStyle can help.
A few years ago, there was an American Express ad where celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito unleashed a scary statistic for anyone interested in running a good restaurant: 90 percent of all eateries fail within their first year. The good news is that there’s no evidence that figure is true. The bad news is that the actual numbers aren’t much more encouraging. Only 20 percent of all restaurants make it past the five-year mark. There are some major factors that can make or break a restaurant – food quality, management, location – but there are also some smaller steps you can take to help ensure your success.
It’s one of the most common questions asked by potential customers: “We’ve just bought a new property. What hospitality products should we purchase first?”
Unfortunately, there’s no single correct answer to this question. In fact, InnStyle has questions of their own: How many rooms does your property have? Are you buying a property that was already in use, or building something new? Are you turning your home into a bed & breakfast? Or a country inn, where you’ll be serving breakfast and dinner?
By asking these questions, staff can gather the information they need to advise customers about the right hospitality products for their property.
This new InnStyle blog will be offering information and industry tips
pertaining to the hospitality industry. With InnStyle’s decades of experience, they hope to create a forum in which both established and up and coming properties including short and long term rentals, bed and breakfasts, lodges, inns, etc can receive helpful tips and information on a vast range of topics surrounding the hospitality industry.
