which reverberate with business and politics. The hotel industry has its roots in the past
in almost over country of the world. Hotel provides a service to the customer whose
requirements are clean, quiet and comfortable stays. The emphasis lies on good food and

5 STAR HOTEL

 INTRODUCTION
A hotel is an establishment that provides lodging paid on a short-term basis. The
provision of basic accommodation, in times past, consisting only of a room with a bed, a
cupboard, a small table and a washstand has largely been replaced by rooms with
modern facilities, including en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning or climate control.
Additional common features found in hotel rooms are a telephone, an alarm clock, a
television, a safe, a mini-bar with snack foods and drinks, and facilities for making tea
and coffee. Luxury features include bathrobes and slippers, a pillow menu, twin-sink
vanities, and Jacuzzi bathtubs. Larger hotels may provide additional guest facilities such
as a swimming pool, fitness center, business center, childcare, conference facilities and
social function services.

 ETYMOLOGY
The word hotel is derived from the French hotel (coming from hotel meaning host),
which referred to a French version of a townhouse or any other building seeing frequent
visitors, rather than a place offering accommodation. In contemporary French usage,
hotel now has the same meaning as the English term, and hotel particular is used for the
old meaning. The French spelling, with the circumflex, was also used in English, but is
now rare. The circumflex replaces the 's' found in the earlier hostel spelling, which over
time took on a new, but closely related meaning. Grammatically, hotels usually take the
definite article – hence "The Astoria Hotel" or simply "The Astoria" (Various, 2013).

 TYPES
Hotel operations vary in size, function, and cost. Most hotels and major hospitality
companies that operate hotels have set widely accepted industry standards to classify hotel
types. General categories include the following (Various, 2013);

: Conference and resort hotels often contain full-sized luxury facilities with full service
accommodations and amenities.

Examples may include: Conrad Hotels, InterContinental Hotels, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons
Hotels and Resorts, Dorchester Collection, JW Marriott Hotels, Starwood – Westin Hotels,
Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt

Historic Inns and boutique hotels often contain luxury facilities of varying size in unique or
intimate settings with full service accommodations.

Select Service

Examples may include: Holiday Inn, Courtyard by Marriott and Hilton Garden
Inn
Limited Service
Examples may include: Hampton Inn, aloft, Holiday Inn Express, Fairfield Inn, Four Points
by Sheraton, and Days Inn
Extended Stay
Examples may include: Staybridge Suites, Homewood Suites by Hilton, Residence Inn by
Marriott, element, and Extended Stay Hotels
Timeshare
Examples may include: Hilton Grand Vacations, Marriott Vacation Club International,
Westgate Resorts, Starwood Vacation Ownership, and Disney Vacation Club
Destination Club
Boatels – floating hotels

 INTERNAL CIRCULATION
 It is categorized into two
categories:
- vertical circulation
- horizontal circulation
 Corridor space should be about 6
m sq per room and normally
 at 1.5 to 1.8 m wide.
 Separate routes should be
provided for guests, staff and
goods.

The figure below gives a schematic layout of various spaces in a hotel and how they are
connected by service networks.
 TYPICAL ARRANGEMENT OF HOTEL AREAS.
Hotels provide a service to their customers whose
requirements are:
•Clean, quiet and comfortable rooms
•Good food
•Good service, and
•Value for money
The financial viability of the project depends on keeping
capital requirements and operating costs to a minimum.
This depends largely on the standards of planning,
construction and equipment of the building. For the
architect the two most important technical decisions are:
•Location of the main kitchen, and
•Provision of an efficient duct system
Four distinct types of areas are involved: guest rooms,
public areas, administration offices and ‘back-of-house’
facilities. Relationships between these areas must be
planned to provide separation of customer and back-of-
house areas but also allow efficient service without
cross-circulation or distraction (Pickard, 2002).

 ENTRANCE
 The impression created by the main entrance is important and defines the type of hotel. It
must always be obvious and lead directly to reception.
 Something more than a canopy is desirable to provide protection from wind and rain.
 Special lighting may be needed to accentuate the entrance.
 Provide doors wide enough for a porter with bags, 900 mm clear.
 With revolving doors, side-hung escape doors will also be required.
 A draught lobby should normally be provided.
 All public entrances must be accessible to ambulant disabled people, and at least one to
those in wheelchairs.
 At least one entrance from the hotel garage must be accessible to wheelchair users.

 ROOMS
Rooms must be designed and furnished to facilitate access.
The shape and the size will be governed by placing of the bathroom.
BATHROOM ON EXTERNAL WALL:-
This gives natural ventilation to the bathroom.
The greatest Disadvantage is that the service duct can only be inspected by passing through the
bedroom.
Also with the bedrooms on both sides of the corridor 2 separate drainage systems are necessary.
The amount of external walling is increased and light to the bedroom may be lost.
BATHROOM BETWEEN BEDROOMS:-
Main disadvantage is the elongation of the corridor and the increased external wall.
If the bathrooms are adjacent one of them is internal, so the ventilation problem is only half
solved and the access to the service duct is still through a bedroom.
INTERNAL BATHROOMS:-
It can help with sound insulation from corridor noise.
The bathroom will require artificial lightning and ventilation but the external walling and
Corridors are minimized.

 RESTAURANT.
Restaurants are a major part of the hotel’s income from non-residential guests. Their designs
and positioning depends on the above questions.

The HRACC guidelines demand that every 5-Star hotel has a 24- Hour Coffee shop and an All
Day Dining facility for the guests (HRACC, 2011).

SPACE REQUIREMENT IN A TYPICAL RESTAURANT

Thus, it is quite evident from the requirements are for the guests who would not be living in
the hotel but visiting for any or other purpose. So, the coffee shop is to be placed or just
adjacent to the guest lift lobby so that the guests could be provided with an informal meeting
space. The all - day dining should also be provided in maximum proximity to the main lobby,
as it would be dedicated to the non-residential customers coming in every hour of the day. In
general practice the all - day dining serves a buffet meal, thus altering the interior furniture
placements and sometimes the overall design of the restaurant.

.
 TYPICAL ARRANGEMENT

 PARKING
 Area for each equivalent car space inclusive of circulation area is 23 sq.m for open
parking, 28sq. m for ground floor covered parking, and 32 sq.m. for 32 sq.m.
 Space for scooter/ two wheeler and bicycle to be less not less than 1.25 sq.m and 1 sq.m,
respectively.
 When used for parking, one WC, two urinals and two washbasins for every 500 cars or
part thereof, shall be provided on each podium floor.

.  The type, size and shape of a turning place in a road depends on the road use in that
particular area. It also has to be suitable for the needs of the road users and must meet town
planning requirements.
