Hotel Design, Planning, and Development 

Comprehensive and beautiful
Reviewer: Michael Parsons from Boston, MA
I found this in the Rizzoli bookstore and had to slit the shrinkwrap to see what the book was like. Then sat down in a soft chair to browse through it but after a half hour decided it made more sense to just buy it and read it at home. Not disappointed. The book covers everything in great detail - lots of text - with pictures of hotels from the Chilean Andes to London and Paris and New York. A must have for people interested in travel and hotels and architecture.

Fred Lawson's text is concise and the information easy to access. He examines the distinctive characteristics of different hotel types, identified by market and location, and specifies the special requirements of each type. Recognizing the need for continuous maintenance and life-cycle refurbishment, a full chapter is devoted to these subjects and the business aspects of the hotel operation are considered. Throughout the book are numerous illustrations of projects showing outstanding examples of hotels and village resorts as well as current trends in design and development.

Hip Hotels: City, Revised Edition

Hip Hotels: City was the very first book to address a whole new travel phenomenon: hotels of such sheer style and individuality that they have redefined the travel experience. Through innovative architecture, outstanding design, and world-class cuisine, Hip Hotels have become destinations in their own right. But the book did not just identify a trend, it has led it. This revised edition reflects that, introducing ten stunning new hotels. They include Blakes in Amsterdam, Anouska Hempel's latest venture, which brings her Asian-inflected minimalism to a superb piece of Dutch Golden Age architecture. In London there is One Aldwych, one of the finest examples of the new contemporary luxury that is fast turning the traditional grand hotel into a museum piece.
