You might consider offering your guests "kid friendly rooms or packages" like pack and go cribs for rent, or toy box in the room (yard sales, just whatever, kids like toys, it don't matter if they're new, they're like a quarter apiece, just make sure the cleaning crew gets 'em good with disinfectant) maybe have a decent selection of kid's movies for rent (pawn shops are awesome for this, very cheap movies usually, and a lot of the times, they let you make sure they work right or let you retrun them) Even if you only offer these things in a few rooms, you'll have one up on the competition, because I've never been to done before. |

I opened a American franchise hotel in south asia - I am 3 years in - its not as easy as it sounds but once all said and done - you will see fruits of your labor. Need alot more capital than you think and even more hard work - sky really is the limit with how well you can do. Confirm what type of model you want to follow and stick to their plans but do not give up your insight into your own business. |

You don't set up any amount of stars. That is a rating that is given to you from outside organizations |

The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.
I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.
Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
* A Survival Guide for Hotel and Motel Professionals by Karen Levine, Alan Gelb
* Check In; Check Out: Managing Hotel Operations (7th Edition) by Jerome J. Vallen
* Buying and Running a Small Hotel: The Complete Guide to Setting Up and Managing Your Own Hotel, Guest House or B and B by Ken Parker
* 100 Tips for Hoteliers: What Every Successful Hotel Professional Needs to Know and Do by Peter Venison
* How to Open a Financially Successful Bed & Breakfast or Small Hotel Paperback by Lora Arduser
There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures! |

If you have an indoor or heated pool and you close it for the "winter" then you should reduce your rates. I cant begin to tell you how mad I am at the hotel/motel owners who had pools on their websites, and then on my honeymoon when we went to these places, the pools were closed....in March, when the temps were 70F. This pisses me off. Be good to people, they are the ones paying your bills and making your dream come true. |
