Nobody Asked Me, But… No. 230: Hotel History: Four Seasons Hotel

Stanley Turkel | April 28, 2020

By Stanley Turkel, CMHS Hotel History: Four Seasons Hotel, (367 rooms) Is it possible to conceive that the Four Seasons Hotel in New York has been converted to house medical professionals battling the coronavirus? In late March, the five-star Four Seasons Hotel located on East 57th Street began to accept hospital employees who work in mid-Manhattan. This I.M.

This 52-story, 367 room building with its limestone-clad lobby, 33-foot-high onyx ceiling, glowing wall sconces and original paintings provided grandeu...

Nobody Asked Me, But… No. 239: Hotel History: Admiral Fell Inn

Stanley Turkel | April 7, 2020

By Stanley Turkel, CMHS Hotel History: Admiral Fell Inn (80 rooms) Fell's Point was founded in the early 1700s when the Fell Brothers arrived from Lancaster, England.

Stanley Turkel | March 17, 2020

By Stanley Turkel, CMHS Hotel History: Barbizon Hotel, New York The Barbizon Hotel for Women was built in 1927 as a residential hotel and clubhouse for single women who came to New York for professional opportunities.

The Barbizon’s design reflects the influence of architect Arthur Loomis Harmon’s enormous Shelton Hotel in New York. Harmon, who would help design the Empire State Building a few years later, made visionary use of the city’s 1916 z...

Stanley Turkel | February 4, 2020

By Stanley Turkel, CMHS Hotel History: Peninsula Hotel, New York (241 Rooms) On February 7, 1989, the Peninsula Hotel was designated as a Landmark by the New York Landmarks Preservation Commission.

Stanley Turkel | January 14, 2020

Hotel History: Grand Hotel, Point Clear, Alabama (306 Rooms) The site on which The Grand Hotel sits today has seen two earlier hotels so named and the area surrounding the hotel and grounds has had a long and exciting history. It begins in 1847, when a Mr. Chamberlain built a rambling, 100-foot long, two-story hotel with lumber brought down from Mobile by sailboats. There were forty guest rooms and a shaded front gallery with outside stairs at each end.

Nobody Asked Me, But… No. 224: Hotel History: The Red Lion Inn

Stanley Turkel | December 23, 2019

By Stanley Turkel, CMHS Hotel History: The Red Lion Inn (108 Rooms) For more than 246 years, the Red Lion Inn has been welcoming visitors to the Berkshires with traditional New England hospitality. Sometime in 1773, Anna and Silas Bingham opened a general store which became a stagecoach stop, tavern and the Stockbridge House.

Christina Tavares | December 17, 2019

The hospitality industry is incorporating more and more technology to facilitate employee training in different departments and levels.

This year, I used a simulation software in class for the first time. The softw...

Teaching Sustainability in STEM and Hospitality Programs: Different Approaches…. Same World!

Laura Zizka | December 13, 2019

Sustainability is increasingly present in everyday life: what is the best way to include it in university courses to properly prepare students for the real world. By Laura Zizka It’s curious to write an article on two seemingly diametrically opposed educational programs. On the one hand, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths (STEM); on the other hand, hospitality. At first glance, there seems to be nothing in common with these studies. STEM students are scientists, engineers, techies, and mathematicians who base their decisions on facts and rigor; hospitality students ooze ‘people’ skills and find practical solutions to imme...
