A fully revised edition of the book architects and developers consider the bible of hotel design. Hotel Design, Planning, and Development, Second Edition , is a thorough overview of the important and fast-growing hospitality industry. It is revised and expanded from the previous edition―the “bible” for designers, developers, planners, and students. This edition, updated to include significant hotels developed internationally in the last ten years, outlines essential planning and design considerations based on the latest data, supported by technical information, 60 Line drawings, 59 Tables, 429 full-color images, and many original floor plans. The authors describe and illustrate different types of hotels, at different locations―downtown, suburban, airport, roadside―with different mixes of facilities―casino hotels, convention hotels, conference centers―and provide analysis and theory to support each of the major trends, highlighting how the designers’ work fits into the industry’s development as a whole. They give increased attention to interior design psychology and the design process. The design guide includes specific information on space allocation programs and details on planning public areas, guestrooms and suites, and back-of-house facilities, as well as the newest developments in design practice and software. Extensive case studies showing best practice examples of hotel design demonstrate how a successful new concept is developed. Contributions from key figures in the profession, such as Ian Schrager and John Portman, illuminate the text. Hotel Design, Planning, and Development, Second Edition , is the primary resource for students of design and hotel management and an essential reference for all those actively involved with hotels. 469 photographs, 64 line drawings, 59 tables Review: The Best Text Ever on Hotel Design, Planning and Development - Amazing info.

MUST HAVE FOR HOTEL DEVELOPER AND ARCHITECT !
The book have complete information about designing & developing various types of hotels. From urban hotel to convention hotel. It goes into detail in designing guestroom, public spaces, back of the house, etc, as well as covered new technology in hospitality & construction. It's also includes lots of pictures and hotel layout. I bought the second edition. It was published in 2012, so many information & hotel examples are up to date. The book appearance & layout like a college text book. I think it's intended for college class cause the author is a Cornell professor. This book becomes one of my reference book. Highly recommended reading for developing a hotel.

Good book
I like this book because it is very detailed and informative, I gave it 4 stars only because the plans are so small, there is no way to read the text in those plans
