Some Of The Best Chain Hotels

In the modern times, we have now moved ahead from the concept of individual hotels to something called chain hotels. Entrepreneurs have realized the role that hotels play in revenue generation. That is one reason why the big hotels are now expanding their scope and setting up shop in various corners of the world.

As with almost any other industry, USA leads the race among the top hotel chains in the world. Among the top 10 hotel chains in the world, eight belong to the USA. The only other countries that come into the list are Great Britain with Intercontinental HG and France with Accor. USA fills up the other places with Wyndham Worldwide, Marriott International, Hilton Corporation, Choice, Best Western, Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Carlson Hospitality and Global Hyatt.

Intercontinental leads the race with more than 200 hotels worldwide. It is present in more than 75 countries. From the first hotel of the chain that was established in 1946 in Belem, Brazil, the group has come up leaps and bounds to become the global leaders in the hotel trade. Wyndham Worldwide, the largest hotel chain the USA and the second largest worldwide, has an international presence and is known for the luxury and customer service it affords to the guests. In fact, all the major hotel chains in the world thrive because they provide excellent service to the guests and never for once make them feel that they are away from their homes.

Hotel architecture also plays a major role in the customer's mind when it comes to perception. A look at any of the major hotels in the world and one can understand what is in store inside. Huge buildings, massive lobbies, designer elevators and state of the art rooms - all these are hallmarks of major hotels.

From the ancient times when there were inns, hotels have come along a long way and are synonymous with luxury. They started the trend called customer service and we all know how important a role customer service plays in today's world. Thinking of hotels makes us see stars, muted lightings, splendid food and smiling faces. Good hotels are value for money. One can gauge that from the fact that the more expensive a hotel is, more difficult is it to get a reservation. Guests never seem to have enough of hotel luxury.

When you travel, make sure you book yourself in a good hotel. The pleasure of travel increases manifold. This is a proven fact.
