Rating: Summary: Very good for understanding hotel properties construction Review: First a few words for the reader of Austin: is not so difficult to convert British pounds to $, or meters to foots....... I don't think is fair to "fail" a book just because it does not use the metric system of your country (one more among the hundreds of countries around the world)Besides, I have enjoyed very much this book, and as a Hotel management postgraduate and professional I have to say that is very useful and complete for: a) Learning more about the considerations you need to take into account when building hotels, as well as how cost evolve depending on a number of factors b) A perfect base for a hotel development course
Rating: Summary: For the European Audience Review: This book is not appropriate for anyone seeking knowledge of hotel development in the United States. The authors are British and the book is written for the European audience. The U.S. reader is not even extended the courtesy of dual imperial and metric measures; room dimensions are in meters and financial figures are presented in pounds. In addition, many of the cited references are dated, the graphics are hard to read, and the book is cheaply printed.
