BBC Travel reports on the different preferences among younger and older
business travelers. A survey conducted by Deloitte, a global consulting and auditing firm, finds that:
36% of 18 to 44 year olds said they enjoy working in more social spaces, like the hotel lobby or common area, while only 17% of those older than 45 reported doing the same. As a result, big hotel chains like Holiday Inn or Marriott are radically redesigning the lobby space, making it more conducive to vocational as well as social activities. At the same time, business class hotels are still focused on providing large desks, bright task lighting and internet access in the room to appeal to those who prefer to work in a more private setting.
Travelers at both ends of the age range will increasingly be able to find more style choices in hotels as companies strive to meet the demands of business travelers.
