Hotel improvement involves meticulous planning and coordination of discrete aspects, fluctuating from the option of Land (which can either be purchased or leased) to the final Grand opening of the Hotel.

Conducting shop Feasibility study and projecting the financial viability of the project is very leading to ensure if the project can in effect generate improbable return on investment (Roi).

Formulation a well ready enterprise Plan plays a vital role in giving the right direction to the enterprise and also in convincing possible investors, to raise finance from different sources, for Hotel Development, building and Operations.

Another leading aspect is to contemplate, if the hotel can be run and managed on its own, under its own banner, or is it useful to have a Franchise or a Hotel supervision Agreement/Contract with a reputed Hotel Operator and the benefits/drawbacks connected with it.

This is followed by getting the whole project Team on board and formulating and developing a concept, which uniquely identifies the property in the target shop and to finally get the introductory sketches and drawings done for the project.

Hotel improvement and building process involves discrete Approvals, Permits and Licences at discrete stages of the project: before, while and after Hotel improvement and Construction.

Next step is designing the discrete Front and back house areas of the proposed Hotel, including Hotel Exterior, Hotel Entrance, Lobby, Guest Floors and Guest Rooms, Food and Beverage Outlets, Kitchen, Laundry, Technical Areas, Swimming Pool, Spa and other Front and Back of House Areas.

That's only half way through, which is followed by Hotel project Cost Estimate, to stay with in Budgets, which subsequently leads to Hotel building Scheduling and Planning, to the actual Hotel project Management.

The whole building process ends with the handing over of the project to the Operations Team from the Projects Team, after the clearance of Punch /Snag List.

Selection, Procurement and factory of discrete Furniture's, Fixtures and equipment (Ff&E) for discrete departments of the hotel is very leading too.

Another leading aspect is to apply for and get the relevant Star Classification for the Hotel.

Then, its time for the Hotel Pre opening process of in effect getting the Hotel supervision and the Operations Team on board.

Hotel Pre opening process involves conducting Staff Training, starting the Marketing and Promotional performance of the Hotel, Formulating Systems and Procedures, Conducting Trial runs and to get all the Operational Supplies and equipment (Os&E) ready, for flat operations.

Then, finally, there you go: Hotel Soft opening before the actual Grand Opening. Soft opening is always recommended before the actual Grand opening, to spoton any deficiencies in the systems and processes, before the hotel finally opens, fully.

Well, that's only when the real challenge starts for the Hotel Owners and the Management, to rightly position the hotel in the target market, generate stock awareness, setting and maintaining standards, and finally the all leading aspect of realizing the improbable return on investment straight through good Gross Operating behalf (Gop), by the right mix of good occupancy and high midpoint daily rate (Adr) and at the same time optimizing the wage from Food and Beverage Outlets, Conference, Weddings and Banquets.
