This Fourth Edition continues its emphasis on applying theory and management strategies, as well as providing updated material on technology's role in the modernized front office.

Material is logically presented in the order of operations, beginning with an overview of lodging and then progressing through a tour of the today's front office, a review of the guest cycle, and an analysis of guest services. This Fourth Edition includes new sections on hotel risk management, security, and housekeeping management.

  • Commentaries from hotel front office managers, general managers, and other department managers
  • Articles on the international hotel workforce
