A1 - Workshop about awareness, feasibility and planning of an Albergo diffuso
Duration
2 to 8 hours
Introduction
The reason for funding a hotel can be different. Some owners say they did this because they "inherited a piece of ground", other because "the location was good", other because "it's my business!". That's not the right way to start any kind of hotel.
The Albergo diffuso's management costs are higher than a traditional hotel. Maintenance costs of the estate are higher than an hotel. Besides there are the costs for cleaning the houses, the time loss for moving between the reception place and the houses, the possibly slower growth of services offered by the village, than the ones offered by the IRD, and the possible decrease of these service's value and customer's willingness to pay for them. We must consider finally, the tough economical situation, the strong competition and the chance of comparing prices via the internet. The question this seminar wants to answer is the following:
- Are we adapt and ready for the Albergo diffuso?
