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.

Want a job at McDonald’s? Now, it is as easy as talking to Alexa

“Alexa, help me get a job at McDonald’s.”

Is today's market too tough for upscale restaurants?

By
Operating a restaurant is never easy, but is it particularly challenging for upscale restaurants?

 Restaurants Unlimited Inc., for instance, which operates 35 fine-dining and “polished casual” eateries, filed for bankruptcy in Delaware last week. Earlier in June, the Four Seasons Restaurant, an iconic spot for power lunch in Manhattan also closed for business after its reopening within less a year.

Are these two examples an isolated case or the tip of the iceberg? Then, if upscale restaurants are struggling to survive in today’s market, what challenges are they facing?

The rising labor cost

 According to the Bloomberg report, Restaurant Unlimited Inc. hires 50 salaried employees at the chain’s headquarter in Seattle, plus another 168 full-time and 1,885 part-time restaurant workers. The rising wages in Seattle, San Francisco, and Portland have resulted in a total of $10.6 million wage expenses in the fiscal year of 2019. Nevertheless, its revenue for the year ended in May dropped 1%, at $…

Suggestive Selling – All You Have to Do is Ask!! (By Nicole Lee)

By
A simple, relatively normal thing occurred while in the drive-through at Del Taco with my boyfriend the other day.After placing our semi-high maintenance food order, the person taking my order, in a forced monotone voice, unenthusiastically asks, “Would you like to add our new blah, blah, blah for dessert?”All my sweet-tooth-driven ears heard was “dessert” and I wanted something sugary to complete my four-course drive-through meal. My boyfriend asked if I wanted the donut thing they were trying to push, but I ended up going with a churro.As we received our food, my boyfriend told the server, “Good job on the upsell.”In which we received the same unenthusiastic “thank you” in reply. This all led to a discussion about suggestive selling, how easy it is, how to do it correctly, and how beneficial it is.Of course, this Del Taco drive-through upsell experience did not meet our standards of how to do it correctly, but it worked!

Easy-Peasy
Both my boyfriend and I have sales and hospitality ba…
