Hotel Types Internet Exercise As was the case throughout history, establishing hotels as areas of rest in relation to journey segments and junction points is practiced today–e.g., roadside motels along stretches of highway, bed & breakfast inns in areas of grand nature, and high rise hotels in city centers. Figure 2-9
Hotel Types Internet Exercise Researching the Internet, find examples of three or more property types. Ideally, these would be local hotels that you could visit. Use these URLs to get started: • http://www.traveldata.com • http://www.motels.com • Use the web site of your local convention/visitor's bureau (ex: http://www.nycvisit.com/index.html) Figure 2-10
Hotel Types Internet Exercise • List three external factors that would affect the success and profitability of these or other types: • Road Side Motel • Bed & Breakfast Inn • High Rise Hotel • Did you find any factors that applied to more than one type of property? Why or why not? Figure 2-11
Hotel Types Internet Exercise Use the Internet to answer as many of the following questions as you can. Call the properties directly for answers not available on-line. • What is the rack rate for a “standard” room? • What is included in this rate? • What amenities are offered at this property? • Are rates different on the weekend? Higher or lower? • What other hotels are in the area? • Compare and contrast the properties you selected. Figure 2-12
