But the word "hotel" didn't appear until the 18th century. It came from the French hotel, large house, and originated in the Latin roots hospitium or hospes. Hospitality, hostile and hotels are all related words. The difficulty of identifying early travelers as friends or foes probably accounts for the conflict in meanings. Friendly travelers found security and accommodations through the hospitality of their hosts. As the number of travelers increased, personal courtesy gave way to commercial enterprise. The hotel was born carrying with it a culture of hospitality. UNDERSTANDING THE HOTEL BUSINESS The Service Culture The hotel industry grew and flourished through the centuries by adapting to the chang­ ing social, business and economic environment that marked human progress. During modern times, these stages have been labeled for easy reference. The 18th century was the agricultural age; the 19th, the industrial age.

In the early 1980’s hotels began to convert a portion of their sleeping rooms to permanently nonsmoking rooms. It is common to find entire floors of hotel sleeping rooms designated as non-smoking. Today, most hotels have a minimum of 50% of their rooms designed as non-smoking. In some markets that figure is as high as 75 to 80 percent. A few hotels have begun to experiment with entirely smoke-free guest rooms. Types of rooms A hotel’s salesman should have a complete knowledge about its products. All those involved in selling of rooms should have the required knowledge about all the rooms in the property. They will then be in a position to recommend & sell the rooms meeting the guest’s requirements. They should know the existing category of rooms, their location & facilities in such rooms. Some of the popular types of rooms found in hotels are as listed below: - 1. Single rooms: - The term refers to a room with a standard single bed to provide sleeping accommodation for one person.
