In hospitality design and construction, the conversation is changing. Product quality alone is no longer enough. For hotel operators managing tight refurbishment schedules, phased installations and demanding brand standards, success depends on working with long-term partners who understand how hotel projects work.
The focus is often on aesthetics, finishes and guest experience which, of course, matter enormously. However, having worked on hotel projects for more than 10 years alongside leading brands such as Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express IHG and Fairfield by Marriott, hotel projects are rarely just about supplying a solid surface product.
Unlike many other sectors, hotel projects involve a huge amount of coordination. In refurbishments especially, installations are frequently completed in stages, with contractors given access to only a small number of rooms at a time to minimise operational downtime. Every room that sits empty during works is a room that is not generating income.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
