Snore Patrol: An Innovation of the Crowne Plaza Hotels

Image
By
Have you ever had any bad experience of your hotel stay because your next-door “neighbors” made too much noise or just could not stop snoring?

The Crowne Plaza Hotels are testing out “snore-absorption rooms” in selected European and Middle Eastern properties. In addition to special amenities, such as sound-proof walls, special designed pillows, and white noise machines, the hotels also hire designated staff for snore patrol. “Snore patrol officers” may knock on a door if they sense that a guest(s) is too loud.

How important does a quiet room mean to you during your hotel stay? What are your thoughts on Crowne Plaza’s approach?

    I heard that the Crowne Plaza motel in the United Kingdom prides itself on catering to guests.How you say? Now, loud sleepers are the center of probable frustration the Crowne is concentrating on. New "snore absorption" rooms are being paired with "snore monitors" charged with keeping the peace. Guests at the motel are both the target and the objective of the brand new procedures by the motel. Eventually, the hotel desires that these procedures will help everybody sleep more comfortably.Nice idea from the said hotel Consumers may want a payday loan to get into the nicer hotel.

How to choose the best credit cards for travel (By David Mai)

  Traveling in a Post-Pandemic World If there was one thing the pandemic taught us, it was that everybody became hesitant and unwilling to travel. Shaver (2020) of The Washington Post shared an interesting tidbit in which Americans were actually staying home less during the pandemic, according to research that tracks users' smartphone data.  The quarantine fatigue affected nearly everyone who lived an active lifestyle or loved to be out and about in the world. It was simply not a safe time, and too many regulations were in place that deterred consumers from traveling for leisure. Consequently, the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the travel and hospitality industry. Yet, there is no doubt that people will yearn to travel again when the pandemic is fully lifted. Around this same time, credit card companies have developed unique ways to retain business with consumers who look to maximize rewards and benefits for their journey.

Want your employees to voice suggestions when customers treat them poorly? The double-edged effects of felt trust

Your job is to be professional, courteous, accommodating … even (and especially) under stress."   — Steve Dorfman, Driven to Excel When consumers know they are always right, they may breed a sense of superiority or entitlement, expecting the frontline employees to comply with any customer behaviors. A  report  shows that 98% of service employees had experienced unpleasant customer behaviors; over 50% of employees encountered rude customers at least once a week. In  a more recent case , a female customer pulled out a gun and fired shots at Burger King because she felt it took too long to receive the order. In organizational research, consumers' unpleasant behaviors toward the service staff are often referred to as either consumer incivility or consumer mistreatment. Current literature has identified customer mistreatment's negative effects on employees' psychological st
