Luxury Hotels Equipped with Wi-Fi
A couple of weeks ago I was in a hotel “business” in Spanish capital, large or small, forward or backward in a chain of urban hotels that pretend to be one of the references in Spain, we’ll NH Hotels, speaking out .
In this city hotel Wi-Fi let alone the subject on which I have given up long ago and that obviously because of my connections in mobility. The usual Wi-Fi Sitcom the basis of good neuritis and a piece of liver (read The Merchant of Venice). I plug? Go history: none at the table, or on tables, on the TV and minimart conveniently behind a heavy table.
A single outlet in the room in a corner, about 20 cm of soil, come on, plug the vacuum.

Economic crisis has led many companies to cut costs
The pinstripes and briefcases are no longer both in Burgos hotel lobbies. The economic crisis has caused many companies to cut costs in the chapter on business trips and business meetings, a fact that directly affects the local tourism industry. Since 2008, the year in which began to manifest the first signs of economic recession, business tourism Burgos has dropped around 20%, according to the Provincial Federation of Hospitality.
The hotel sector in Burgos, regardless of conventional tourism depends largely on the influx of executives, managers and employees of companies from elsewhere in Spain or abroad who come here to do business. It is the customers who occupies or occupied the hotel rooms on weekdays. The weekend was reserved for backpackers and photo camera, which came to the capital to enjoy their heritage and their food.
But the drop in sales has forced many companies to tighten their belts and have set many limits on the outputs of its managers and outside sales teams. Three years ago, “a company came to Burgos with a group of executives and could be hosted Monday through Thursday in a hotel,” says Jose Luis Lopez, president of the hoteliers of Burgos. But now this no longer happens, “maybe come two days, compress all your visits and meetings and returned to their home,” he explains.
Many companies and banks established monthly meetings of several days in Burgos to share projects and discuss new avenues for business expansion. Well, “the frequency of these meetings is now monthly or quarterly.”
Logically, this fact has led to hotel owners to lower prices to try to keep those clientele weekdays. In some cases, have come to be reduced by up to 20%, told this newspaper.
