COOL HOTELS AMERICA |
INTRODUCTION It all started back in the eighties. The moment Ian Schrager opened the doors of his first hotel, Morgans, in 1984, the hotel industry would never be the same again. Not only would he go down as the father of the notorious Studio 54, but also as the pioneer of a new movement in hotel management and design. Ever since, young, shrewd entrepreneurs with family moneyfollowed suit, planting seeds all over the globe that have grown to define what is loosely termed today as the boutique hotel concept. Others prefer to call it "small luxury", or "designer". We like to call them "cool". [..] For those who travel on business or pleasure, the search of originality and authenticity can often be quite a challenge. These hotels aim to fill that gap, and respond to a variety of clientelle, which means that they mustr create a unique identitiy and target a certain kind of traveller.
