Book Description
"The purpose of this thesis is to design an urban hotel located in Seoul, the capital city of Korea. I used an existing hotel, named Kims, for this renovation project. The existing hotel consists of forty-eight guest rooms, one bar, one coffee shop, one restaurant and a lobby area. The coffee shop and the restaurant are placed in the same room separated by three-foot high partitions. Compared to other transient or residential hotels in Seoul and large cities in the United States. this four-story hotel with forty-eight guest rooms can be designated as a small hotel in scale. William S. Gray and Salvatore C. Liguon define hotels with less than one hundred rooms as small hotels, with regard to their size in large cities.1 Because Seoul is one of the busiest cities in Asia, as well as in the world, the owner of this hotel can expect not only an increase in the number of national guests but also in guests from abroad. The expected customer groups are business people from other areas in Korea, business people from abroad, and national and international tourists. I believe that customers will be aware of and enjoy visiting this small hotel if the hotel provides adequate advertising and a convenient and beautiful environment with distinguished decorations. Therefore, renovation is required to help improve the general qualities of the hotel and to provide advantages that small hotels possess such as coziness. Guests can feel as if they are staying home. Furthermore, the business operation is less complicated than it is in larger hotels. I intend to provide high quality facilities with easy access and unique decorations for guests and employees, and to use traditional Korean elements of decoration for this project, because I judge that the most important factor that could impress foreigners is to express my own culture to them through the design of this hotel. In addition, this design concept could evoke an attachment to the culture for natives. In the design process, I first referred to characteristics of traditional Korean house forms and furniture. They supported the design of the objects and the details that are used in this project. Then, I unified and abstracted the characteristics so that these motives could be integrated into my own design. Because one scope of this renovation is to internationalize this hotel, and the fact that I designed this project as a result of studying in the United States. I consulted Americans with Disabilities Act: law and regulations and Official Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations NYCRR: New York Codes, Rules, and Regulations for guidance. I approached this interior renovation project by dividing it into two main parts; space planning and design. For the space planning and circulation. I took a hotel's functional organizations and principles of operation into consideration, and as I mentioned earlier. I used traditional Korean design characteristics for aesthetic motives. I intended, therefore, to make this hotel artistically wellorganized by means of combining its unique visual aspects with practicality in performing the basic role of hotels, such as management and operation. Thus, the hotel can be a more valuable asset than it was before the renovation, both for the owner as well as for expected customers."--Abstract.

Book Description
There is a huge competition between the business resorts and hotels for the sophisticated cadre of travelers all over the world. The operators and developers in hotel industry look forward to interior designers and architects for creating interesting and unique experiences for their guests. For many decades, the hotel industry had primarily focused upon the operations and functionality. The concept of designing and development of a hotel is rooted in the ethnicities of hospitality to the travelers, which dates back to the ancient times. Various kinds of hotels have evolved in many different countries. The interior styling and designing of hotels are very diverse and numerous variations are there like inns, motels, hotels and spas and resort. Many different aspects influence the sense of a place like small details of furnishing, interiors, buildings, and landscapes. In most of the today's high-end developments, a guest room can be a conventional serviced apartment or a hotel room, and even a phenomenon, which has changed the standalone hotel to a mini-community having, lots of different uses. From an architect's perspective the apartment unit or a guestroom is the core building block, which sets a structure for the building. Since architects are involved in the projects of hospitality for decades, it is a fact that there is no "one size for all" in the hotel industry. Thus, this book will serve the main purpose of guiding as to what is hotel development, planning, and designing. The most happening and unique interiors of a hotel transform a simple stay into a successful and unforgettable experience and makes the guests as the drivers of this journey. In a small frame of time, internet has emerged to become the main source of communication for the development team of the hotels and guests. Rapid advancement in technology has supported the implementation of sustainable practices in operations and design. While detailing the activities, the allocation of space and relationships in the building along with an excellent and resourceful program provides aids in establishing the way a building is situated on a site. The summary of all the space allocation, relationships and activities in a hotel is known as design philosophy or design brief and a building program. This book brings to the readers the planning and development of hotel property, the philosophy behind the designs of a hotel and the types of hotels, which will include the hotel designing for differently abled people. In the later sections, it will also talk about the market analysis and financial feasibility along with the prevalent risks and opportunity in the hotel industry. Above is a very simple sketch of the book on Hotel Planning, Design and Development and a complete study has much more to offer. I look forward to the reader for achieving value-based results by using the techniques and methodologies prescribed in the book. The constructive criticism and the feedback would be most welcome.
