Hospitality Industry
1. What does Hospitality mean?
• According to the Oxford Dictionary, hospitality
means “the reception and entertainment of
guests, visitors or strangers with liberality and
good will”.
• In simple words, Hospitality may be defined as
meeting the needs of guests in a variety of
establishments.
• The word hospitality is derived from hospice
(nursing home), a medieval “house of rest” for
travellers and pilgrims.
• Hospitality then includes hotels and restaurants.
3. HISTORY OF HOTELS
• Hotels have a long history, way back in 6th
Century BC when the first inn and around the
city of London began to develop.
• The first catered to travellers and provided
them with a mere roof to stay.
• This condition of the inns prevailed for a long
period of time, until the industrial revolution
in England, which brought new ideas and
progress in the business at the inn keeping.
4. • The invention of the steam engine made
travelling even more prominent which had
more people travelling not only for business
but also for leisure reasons.
• This led to the actual development of the
hotel industry.
• Hotels now not only cater to the basic needs
but also provide personalized services etc.
• Hotels today are “Home away from Home”
12. • Every hotel, whether it’s big or small, needs an organizational structure
to carry out its daily operations.
• It was basically segmented into six divisions: finance, front office,
human resources, food and beverage, sales and logistics.
• Financial
The financial department’s role is to record financial transactions, prepare
and interpret financial statements, and deal with cost accounting and cost
control.
• Front Office
The front office (room management) department handles customer
service including front desk service, reservation, laundry, concierge,
telephone, and housekeeping service. A hotel’s front office is where guests
are greeted when they arrive, where they get registered and assigned to a
room, and where they check out. It’s almost the most important
department as it often offers contact with customers.
13. • Human Resources
The human resources department is given the responsibility to handle employee
recruitment, arrange staff training, make promotion and disciplinary decisions, and
check staff attendance.
• Food & Beverage
The food and beverage department is responsible for all of the dining rooms,
restaurants, bars, kitchen, clean up services, etc. Here we basically divide F/B
department into two parts: kitchen and restaurant. Kitchen department is
responsible for food preparation including main food, dessert, side food, and
beverage. Restaurant department‘s role is to provide dining room operation, waiter
service, food runner, and clean up service.
• Sales
The responsibility for sales department is to sell the hotel facilities and services to
individuals and groups. They sell rooms, food, beverage or special service such as
massage and laundry to potential customers through advertising or direct contacts.
• Logistics
The logistics department is responsible for tracking for daily supplies, purchasing
appliances, and keeping security.
14. Importance of USP’s in a hotel
• Every hotel needs to discover what is unique
about its brand and then promote heavily in its
marketing efforts on the web.
• What do you want your guests to see and feel
when they experience a hotel – this is ultimately
what a property needs to take into account when
working out the online marketing USP
• USP needs to be something that will personally
affect the life of the end user.
15. • COMMON MISTAKES:
• The biggest mistake we’ve seen in working out the USP
is to forget that it has to be something that the guest
will benefit from.
• SOME EXAMPLES:
• Using a historical fact as a USP. That Oscar Wilde lived
in a hotel is not much of a USP because it doesn’t show
much benefit to the individual.
• Focusing on interior design elements. Mentioning LED
lighting or other fancy technology features as a USP
doesn’t help understand the comfort.
• Using the decoration theme as USP. That the hotel is
decorated based the theme of cars is nice but the guest
isn’t staying there to watch the theme.
16. Key elements of a USP
• There are three factors that determine a hotel’s USP
and only three.
1) Location
2) Comfort
3) Value
• A good USP integrates all three elements to form a
clear concept of the hotel. If a hotel is unique (and
positively so) on all three points, the USP will be
perfect.
• But that’s rare, a property will often find one of these
points is totally unique and the other two are passable.

A Bed and Breakfast (B&B) is a private home in which guests
can be accommodated at night in private bedrooms (which may or may
not have private bathrooms). The owner or manager lives in the house
or on the property. The public areas of the house, such as kitchen and
lounge have either limited access for guests, or are shared with the
host family to some degree. The business may be run as a secondary
occupation. Breakfast is included in the price (generally either
continental or full-English). Other meals may be available by
arrangement.

31. Backpacker’s Hostel
A hostel (or backpacker) establishment is aimed at the budget traveller and generally attracts a younger
clientele. Bedrooms are in a dormitory style (shared) and bathrooms are shared, although private bedrooms
may be available.
Light meals may be available in addition to the room rate.
33. Boutique Hotel
A boutique hotel is a 5 star establishment providing all the features and facilities of a normal
hotel, in a unique and exclusive style. These properties are generally small, feature top class service and are
marketed to the affluent.
Guest House
A guesthouse is generally a private home which has been converted for the dedicated and exclusive
use of guest accommodation. The public areas of the establishment are for the exclusive use of the guests.
The owner or manager either lives off-site, or in an entirely separate area within the property. A Guesthouse
offers a wider range of services than a B&B, and usually caters for all meals.
34. Homestay is a form of tourism or study abroad that allows visitors to rent rooms from local families. It is sometimes used by
people who wish to improve their language skills and become familiar with the local lifestyle.
Some countries encourage homestay as a means of developing their tourism industry. Hosting a homestay participant allows the
host family to earn an income. Students tend to arrange a homestay with their school or educational institution, but they can
informally arrange one through social connections and private agencies that connect students with hosts families, usually for a
nominal fee.
Amanpreet Bajaj, Country Manager - India, Airbnb, said: “Homestays are fast emerging as the
trendiest thing for travellers, nowadays. More and more people now want to move away from the
templatised ways of travel and standardised hospitality services to have unique experiences.”
India is a key strategic market for Airbnb’s overall growth, he said. The company, which currently has
over 18,000 listings, has seen 115-per cent growth in listings since last year.
