If you are considering investing in hospitality construction, be aware of a few of the current trends.
Elevated Presence of Technology
The latest hotels are incorporating smart home technology, allowing guests to use their own smart phones to customize their rooms. The gym, spa, and room service, will be easily assessable on a mobile app.
While guests will be able to use their mobile device to open their hotel room door, surf the internet and television, adjust the lighting and temperature of the room.
Themed Experiences
Guests are looking for more than just a room with a bed and a chair. They want an experience that will make their trip more enjoyable and memorable. Hoteliers are creating designs based on the town they are located in, a hyper-local feel. While others will be catering to the health conscious guests with healthy dining options, spa, fitness center, even yoga classes.
Dual Brands
A duel brand strategy incorporates two brands under the same roof. Complementing each other, sharing facilities, such as front desk space, elevators, public spaces, reduces costs while attracting more guests. Exterior and interior design would need to be coordinated, but the benefits to both the investor and guests are numerous.
“The advantages to an investor or developer with a dual-branded hotel is the likelihood of significant cost savings when only having to develop a single amenity or component within the hotel. The saving can even begin prior to construction with decreased costs related to plans, permits, fees and entitlements. For these reasons, developers generally prefer to do as much blending as possible,” Hotel OnLine.
