As the summer season begins, people often work outside. With this umbrella, guests at your terrace can recharge their laptop or mobile via an USB outlet. The umbrella has a small solar panel that converts solar energy into electricity for the USB outlet. Restaurants can provide their guests with extra service, allowing guests to spend more time on the terrace.
Obviously The Netherlands is a country filled with flowers that are used in every hotel bouquet or beautiful garden. But special details made out of flowers are not as day-to-day, like in the “Pangkor Laut Resort” in Malaysia where they make little pieces of art of flowers and put them in your room, in the garden or between towels. Do you want to read more examples of small gestures, read our last edition of ‘Royal hospitable gestures‘.

Finding a cheap hotel is not always easy, but with the suitcase ‘Hotello’ you can easily set up your own hotel room or workplace anywhere. The suitcase on wheels does not immediately look like a bedroom, but when you unpack the suitcase you transform a empty building in a hotel room. This flexible room can be placed in just any empty space. The suitcase contains a bed, desk with chair and a storage. The ‘Hotello’ is developed by Roberto de Luca and Antonio Scarponi for the Swiss company Daskonzept. The big question is who is going to facilitate space to unpack this ‘suitcase’.

Imagine, you are on a holiday and you want to eat a local dish. You can eat a meal at a restaurant, but you can also have a dinner at someone’s home… The global community EatWith invites people to dine in homes across the world. Users can offer their ‘kitchen’ on the website of EatWith as an alternative for the restaurants in the area. Travelers can have a cozy dinner at someone’s home, share stories, have an unique experience and meet new people. It is a similar concept as AirBnB. The question is to what extent providers on this website must meet requirements such as hygiene and so on.
The Glad Tent is a tent and a compost bag in one. So when you are done partying at the festival, you can leave the garbage in the tent where you spent the night. A brilliant way to be more environmentally friendly this festival season.
A ‘small gesture in hospitality’ made local. Like the “Ratilanne Riverside Resort” in Chiang Mai, Thailand did, they dress up their water bottles in local costumes. A very charming little way of presenting the local culture, who’s next or which hotel in The Netherlands serves their bottles in Dutch traditional costumes?

The female PSV fans (football club from Eindhoven, The Netherlands) can be surprised by their partners or children with a brunch on the field of the Philips Stadium. Together with their children and husband they can kick a ball at lunch! A special location, although we recommend other clubs to use this for father’s day 😉
Create more ambiance to your taste with the string lights and pendant lamps of iGlowbes. The lightning is available in more than 60 colours and the pendant lamp in five dimensions, so fitting into any interior. Great for restaurants, hotels and events to match the colours to the interior or the theme of the party. You can hang the lights, but they are also great as decoration on a table or in a vase. The lighting is hand made of polyester in Thailand, which makes each ball unique. Are you planning to open a pop up store? iGlowbes likes to take care of the lighting and create the atmosphere. Interested, please contact us via tip@spronsen.com or contact@iGlowbes.com. We will place your pop-up store with the decoration on Horecatrends.
At the shopping mall, Hoog Catharijne, and the adjoining Central Station Utrecht the ‘Call of the Mall’ will be held this summer. In the hallways, on the walls, on roofs and other “hidden places” visitors can see art from more than 25 artists from home and abroad. Artworks Call of the Mall is organized by the ‘Stichting Kunst in het Stationsgebied’ in cooperation with the city of Utrecht. Artists will try to catch the digital and technical changes of our times in the mini-society of ‘Hoog Catharijne’ and at the same time show the visitors the consequences.
