Managing Hotels

The Hospitality industry is perhaps one of the oldest in the world. What started by providing accommodation to travelling merchants has gradually blossomed into a global, multibillion-dollar industry. Now, more than ever, the hospitality industry has refined its offering, products, and styles to match the ever-increasing demands of millennial travelers. Today, we have specialized hotels catering to different segments of users, where experiences are tailored to the minutest detail. In this book, I have briefly touched upon the various facets of the inner working of this wondrous and complex industry. From the way technology is changing the face of how a hotel is run to luxury establishments rising up to their responsibilities and embracing sustainable initiatives, I have covered all this and more in a series of short articles. Summarizing my 45 years of experience into a book was not easy, but I have, nonetheless, made an honest attempt to keep all articles informative and engaging. My vision for this book was to create a valuable resource for those who are trying to make a mark in the hospitality industry or even those of you who crave a peek into what goes on behind the scenes of one of the smoothest running shows in the world!
