  • Boutique Hotels Segment the Challenge of Standing out from the Crowd
    SEPTEMBER 2011 BOUTIQUE HOTELS SEGMENT THE CHALLENGE OF STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD Cristina Balekjian Associate Lara Sarheim Associate Director www.hvs.com HVS – London Office| 7‐10 Chandos Street, Cavendish Square, London W1G 9DQ, UK Introduction Interest in boutique hotels, despite the relative slow down in the global economy, remains overwhelming. It is an exciting segment of the market particularly within Europe’s gateway cities. New investors are keen to enter the market and established hotel operators are fast expanding and developing new concepts to compete in this sector. With the boutique hotel market now truly established, operators have recently reported data that suggests their hotels are outperforming the competing corporate chains, especially during the recession. Developing/evolving consumer habits can help to explain this growth as guests are becoming more aware of design, expect a higher level of service, and are increasingly seeking an experience instead of a commoditised product. Guests increasingly want to feel recognised and like to feel part of a unique experience. Boutique hotels are generally accepted to be small (100 rooms appears to be the invisible boundary) and are therefore better placed to react as their limited capacity enables them to enhance the quality of service and customise their outlets. In the majority of cases, large‐scale hotels need to cater to a significant number of guests, and thus struggle to compete with the personal service afforded by a small boutique operation that can take into consideration the preference of each individual guest. Furthermore, (independent) boutique hotel owners often do not have to comply with brand standards, thus developers can more easily convert an existing building into a design led‐hotel that welcomes varying floor levels and layouts rather than having to conform to minimum room sizes and specific FF&E standards imposed by most brands.
