Abstract
One of the things that everyone loves most about
staying in a hotel, or in the city or on the far corner
of the world, is getting to know each other. For years,
the hotel plan was almost the same, whether you live
in a $ 100 room or a $ 1,000 suite. But that model - a
comfortable entrance with a front desk and a carriage;
a room full of small toiletries and a turndown service
with a folded duvet and one chocolate in your pillow
- has been transformed. Popular products have long
since disappeared or been found in large chains. The
services we rely on have been removed or replaced
with a new set of features designed to benefit the
new generation of travelers. The hotel room trend
has changed to accommodate changing needs and
tastes. Wasn’t it only a few years ago that free Wi-Fi
was the most talked-about “thing” in the hotel industry?
What a shift in focus to robot butlers, out-of-pocket
settlement methods, and “mesmeric” experiences!
Indeed, hotel styles are quite transcendent. So, passing
by quickly, we thought it would be interesting to take a
step back in time and point out some of the best hotel
routes in the last hundred years. Some have come
and gone (whatever happened to all those vibrating
beds?), While others, like the chocolates in our pillows
continue to be a pillar of today.
