Hi Devildude,

thanks for giving such a detailed rundown of your thoughts and comments on my thread of "What do you look for in a 5-star hotel?" - really appreicated your time given.

No, I don't work for any hotel. I work for a property development company base in Hong Kong. My company is looking at developing a 5-star hotel in China.

I've posted this question in the forum because we (company, hotel, & the architects) are into the designing phase and were debating on the size of meeting facilities, F&B outlets and other facilities - some wants to reduce their area plan while others want to enlarge the area plan... As I am only a small potato in the company I have no way in hearing their debates yet I really want to know more about the process and everything. So, I decided to seek the opinions from the end-users' perspective and hence this question in the forum.

Traders in Penang Malaysia. I may indeed visit this great hotel one day when I climb higher on the corporate ladder.

Just a final question: Does Traders hire "star chef(s)" for all 4 restaurants? I've heard these chefs can be demanding and very expensive... I understand this may be business sensitive, so please feel free not to answer...

Hi Wraith11,

Thank you for commenting in my thread "What does a 5-star hotel mean to you?", really appreciating your thoughts and time given.

I also agree with you that independent hotels actually do a better job. Look at the recent top 10 best services hotels as voted by the Travel+Lesiure readers, it's easy to see that several (can't remember the exact number, I think it's about 3 or 4 out of the 10) are independently managed.

Oh well, my company chose a branded hotel group, I just have to play along.

I really like your idea of "a mint on the pillow of my bed" and the installation of jacuzzi.

But thanks asking. Appreciate it.
