The Den, home away from home

Industry experts point to an increased demand from consumers, who are indulging in what can be called ‘revenge travelling’ and splurging on holiday fanfare as a way to get over the stress of the lockdown. While this activity is anticipated, there is also going to be a drastic change in terms of requirements by travellers due to the prevailing fears of Covid-19 and the desire to get value for their hard-earned money.

How can hoteliers and service providers meet these requirements?

• Show guests what you’re doing to keep them safe
• Offer services built around staying safe and healthy
• Create an amazing experience
• Start marketing early
• Place a strong focus on average and affordable spend per guest
