• It's been a long time coming. But this month hospitality professionals around the world are beginning to be able to do what they do best - offering guests memorable experiences in wonderful settings. It's fair to say that the next month will be memorable in lots of ways, with most hotels adhering to a very different way of working than they are used to.
But as I have said before, this sector is nothing if not resilient, and the 960,000 hospitality staff in the UK who are retunring to work this month, and the millions more beyond, will be rolling their sleeves up and doing their utmost to ensure customer satisfaction.
The BHN team will be in London on Monday July 6th conducting - socially distanced - video interviews with hoteliers and guests to get a gauge on how the reopening is being managed. If you are a central London hotelier, operator or GM who would like to be interviewed, please contact my colleague Eloise Hanson at eloise@internationalhospitality.media to arrange it.
