  • Winning the Engagement War: Creating the Hotel of the Future with Ancillaries
    WINNING THE ENGAGEMENT WAR: CREATING THE HOTEL OF THE FUTURE WITH ANCILLARIES Presented by + Winning the Engagement War: SKIFT REPORT 2018 2 Creating the Hotel of the Future With Ancillaries EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Hotel ancillaries, often known to travelers and travel businesses as the extra items — like rental cars, hotel room upgrades, spa visits, food delivery, and tours — that are bundled along with their rooms, already play an essential role in the sector’s merchandising, marketing, and revenue considerations. But even though ancillaries have always been an effective strategy to boost sales, they are no longer seen by hotel executives as a mere supplement to other travel products. Today, they are increasingly the main event. Following the lead of the airline industry, which in 2017 earned an estimated $82 billion worldwide from sales of ancillary products, hotel executives are realizing that they are no longer simply selling access to just rooms and beds. Instead, they are now travel gatekeepers and tastemakers, selling access to a universe of related experiences connected to dining, entertainment, spas, tours and activities, retail, local services, and more. Taking this more expansive view of hospitality offers hotel businesses a variety of business benefits, including increased revenue, a more detailed understanding of the wants and needs of their customers, and an ability to drive more repeat business and create loyal customers. But in order to capitalize on this vision, hotels will need adjust their current ancillary approach. This will involve a renewed focus on better personalizing the types of ancillary offers they promote to customers, using what they know about guests to deliver more meaningful bundles of products that align with customer needs.

  • 2007 Manhattan Hotel Market Overview Page 1 of 28
    HVS Hospitality Services : 2007 Manhattan Hotel Market Overview Page 1 of 28 Manhattan Hotel Market Overview HVS Hospitality Services, in cooperation with New York University's Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management, is pleased to present the tenth annual Manhattan Hotel Market Overview. A slight uptick in Manhattan’s occupancy level in 2006 led to a record high of 85.0%. Despite a virtually stable occupancy, the Manhattan lodging market registered a 13.4% increase in RevPAR compared to 2005, continuing its impressive performance. The market’s RevPAR gain was supported by double-digit growth in average rate each month of the year, with the exception of December, causing year-end 2006 average rate to exceed the 2005 level by 13.2%. The high rates registered by the Manhattan lodging market were caused primarily by continued strong demand levels in 2006, allowing hotel operators to be more selective with lower-rated demand and increasingly boost rates, thereby accommodating greater numbers of higher-rated travelers. We note that the market’s overall occupancy level of 85.0% in 2006 highlights the underlying strength of the Manhattan market, which continued to operate at near-maximum-capacity levels. Because of a further decline in supply in 2006, the market continued to experience many sell-out nights, causing a significant amount of demand to remain unaccommodated. Given the larger-than-ever construction pipeline in Manhattan, a substantial portion of previously unaccommodated demand is expected to be accommodated in the future. Manhattan’s marketwide occupancy and average rate both achieved new record levels in 2006, and we expect the positive trend to continue in 2007.

They become unusable or no longer meet increasing expectations about com- EDITORIAL fort and space. Sometimes they are simply not impressive enough for new users or functions. These circumstances make the desire for something new only too under- standable. But there are good reasons for not acceding to calls for renewal invariably and unthinkingly. RE-NEW Renovating an old building uses up to two thirds less material than an equiva- lent new building – saving the equivalent amount of energy for producing and trans- porting materials, as Thomas Lemken writes in his article for Daylight&Architecture. Many old buildings additionally possess unrivalled construction qualities – whether a “bonus” in terms of room height and width or details and decorations in the work- manship no longer found in new buildings. Often, however, these aesthetic qualities are hidden, and it takes the work of an architect to bring them to light. In his article “More space, more light” in this issue, Hubertus Adam describes how this can hap- pen. However, existing buildings in our cities and villages also represent an unparal- leled challenge. Badly insulated old buildings are among humanity’s greatest energy wasters.
