Small gesture in hospitality: kids check in<\/a><\/h3>\n

Small gestures can do a lot to your company, just like this gesture of Van der Valk Harderwijk. In this hotel the smallest guests aren\u2019t forgotten, not even during the check-in. Normally you have to \u00a0check-in at a high desk in hotels. Desks which kids aren\u2019t able to overlook. To welcome the small guests Van der Valk Harderwijk has made a special check-in step. A small step so curious kids will be able to overlook the reception just like their parents, or talk eye to eye with the front office employee. Kids happy, parents happy, and the front office employee can wish the whole family a pleasant stay. Nice small gesture!<\/p>\n

Stay the night at a \u2018bee-hotel\u2019<\/a><\/h3>\n

Fairmont is upping the buzz at ten of its hotels, by working with Pollinator Partnership to create rooftop beehives\u2014which they’re calling bee hotels\u2014to help increase the wild bee population. Fairmont is not the first to do so (the Waldorf Astoria New York and Peninsula Paris also have beehives on their rooftops), but they might just be the first to do so on a brand level.<\/p>\n

Meatless hamburger<\/a><\/h3>\n

Impossible Foods has perfected a juicy, bleeding, meatless hamburger that mimics beef down to its distinct aroma \u2013 and they just debuted the revolutionary vegan patty in San Francisco. Engineered to evoke the taste, smell, and cooking reactions of beef, this food innovation could change family cookouts forever. Impossible Foods founder Patrick Brown told The Wall Street Journal, \u201cThe whole mission of this company is to make eating animals unnecessary\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ikea to launch DIY pop-up restaurant in Shoreditch (London)<\/a><\/h3>\n

From 10 – 25 September guests are able to eat in restaurant \u2018The Dining Club\u2019 from Swedish retailer Ikea. Guests are able to take over the entire space free of charge and create their own menu. It is also possible to name the venue after themselves if wanted. Ikea believes that the joy of cooking together is more than just creating food \u2013 it\u2019s about building lasting memories and bringing people together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
