the “power vampire”.
Mobile and social media create a
sense of immediacy
Technology is changing the way
people search and book travel
Mobile and social are
changing the way we
connect with our

GREAT SERVICE, LANDMARK FACILITY WITH UP TO DATE TECHNOLOGY
THE GREETING WAS ROYAL, AND EVERYTHING WAS JUST GORGEOUS. WE HAD A GREAT TIME!
THE BUTLER SERVICE IS A NICE TOUCH WITHOUT BEING INTRUSIVE.
