Evidence of hotels and the hospitality industry have been recorded far back ever since biblical times. As with the passing of time, we have gone from economic and low cost to plush and extravagant. In the Roman era, the first hotels were nothing more than private homes opened to public. Most, unfortunately, had poor reputations. The increasing numbers of travelers encouraged the hotel owners to start catering to the pleasure and leisure travelers in an effort to encourage visitors. From that point on, a surge of hotels flooded all the major cities and expanded to the rest of the world. Today, we have a plethora of big and well-known brands like Westin, Marriot and Hilton available in capitals circling the globe. What comes with these prominent hotels is the prevailing and committed enthusiasm to serve guests to the highest level possible.
For the upper echelon of society, luxury is the key to it all. It has gradually become an essential part of established top tier hotels serving the elite high-end customers or guests since 1790s. Voltaire once said, “Luxury has been railed at for two thousand years, in verse and in prose, and it has always been loved”.
Nothing can describe the high-end side of this industry better than his quote. High net worth travelers and the la haute société nowadays seem to look for more than paid lodging on a short-term basis or a place to spend the night in a new city away from home. Especially when there are many hotels that offers the same services and facilities within a five kilometer radius. Many travelers view them as an integral part of a getaway experience. Travelers can choose a hotel that is as much a selling point as the destination itself. This is the reason why luxury hotels are constantly ranked accordingly to the satisfaction of guests and third party organizations such as Tripadvisor, Elite Traveler and Business Asia Magazine.
Lebua is ranked 8th in the Top 25 Luxury Hotels in Thailand for 2011 by Tripadvisor. Tower Club at lebua, the all suite luxury hotel has quickly established itself as one of Bangkok’s finest hotels, winning several awards and accolades in a short period of time after its grand opening.
