<< Business Rewards Package created for Boomer and Gen X/Y business
travellers
who share preferences and behaviors while on the road >>
A recent survey(*) of business travellers reveals
that comfort and technology (and a TV remote) are tops for relaxing business
travel. Half of Boomers and nearly that many Gen X/Y (48 percent) think a
comfortable bed is the most important hotel feature, and more than one third
of both groups indicated the quickest way to get stressed was through a slow
or nonexistent hotel Internet connection.
\"Whether they are seasoned travellers or new to the demands of today\'s
mobile, multi-tasking business world, business travellers rely on certain
hotel amenities to stay successful,\" said Paul Kirwin, president of Carlson
Hotels Worldwide, parent company of Radisson. \"We\'ve made sure we\'re listening
and providing the comfortable bed and free in-room, high-speed Internet access
they expect.\"
Every Radisson hotel features the custom-designed Sleep Number(R) bed and
free high-speed Internet access in the guest room (wired or wireless), with
Wi-Fi access in the lobby and restaurant.
To reward business travellers, from now through December a special
Business Rewards Package provides breakfast (up to $15 USD), early
check-in/late check-out and 2,000 bonus Gold Points(R), in addition to other
great amenities. For more information, visit http://www.radisson.com/business.
Both Boomer and Gen X/Y business travellers chose \"in-room spa\" as their
top dream hotel amenity (Boomers 56 percent, Gen X/Y 58 percent) and \"hot
shower\" as the best way to unwind at the hotel (Boomers 38 percent, Gen X/Y 33
percent) and agreed that mini-bars (Boomers 69 percent, Gen X/Y 62 percent)
and aromatherapy (Boomers 12 percent, Gen X/Y 13 percent) are the top
amenities they don\'t need.
When asked what they don\'t want anyone to know they do on a business
trip, both groups noted \"watch TV all night\" (Boomers 23 percent, Gen X/Y 20
percent) as a top guilty pleasure, although Boomers rated \"eat junk food\" (27
percent) as their other bad habit.
