Hottest New Business Hotels of 2004

2004年最受歡迎的新開張的商務(wù)酒店

Shopping into a brand new hotel room with nary a scuff mark on the floor is the lodging equivalent of the new car smell.

步入剛落成的酒店客房，嶄新的地板上不見一絲腳印，那種感覺，與聞到新車的味道如出一轍。

There’s a certain pleasure in knowing that no one else has stepped into your territory.

想到你的領(lǐng)地還不曾有人涉足，自然會(huì)喜上心頭。

Some people like to stay in the same business hotel year after.

有些人喜歡入住同一家酒店，年復(fù)一年，始終不渝。

While familiarity is always comforting, it can also become boring and inconvenient.

但是，盡管熟悉總能讓人感到舒適親切，但也可能會(huì)逐漸變得乏味與不便。

Even the finest hotels can start to look a little worn on the edges, and the décor starts to look outdated.

即使是最最富麗堂皇的酒店，隨著歲月的流逝，建筑物的邊角處也會(huì)些微的破敗磨損，裝潢也會(huì)開始顯得陳舊過時(shí)。

Aesthetics aside, an aging hotel may not have had the time or the budget to install the latest technology, such as Wi-Fi in all rooms and public spaces, as well as DVD players and flat-screen televisions.

除了外觀不美，年代久遠(yuǎn)的飯店通常既沒有時(shí)間也缺乏資金在所有客房和公共場(chǎng)所安裝DVD播放機(jī)和全屏彩電，更不用說Wi-Fi等先進(jìn)科技。

The newest and shiniest gadgets can almost always be found in newly built hotels.

那些引人注目的新潮玩意兒往往在新落成的酒店里隨處可見。

When it comes to Wi-Fi, it is much easier(and less expensive)to install when a building is going up, rather than to re-configure an older property.

說到安裝Wi-Fi,在建蓋新樓時(shí)進(jìn)行要比在一座舊建筑物里改造安裝容易得多(也便宜得多)。

This gives new hotels a bit of an edge as they splurge on top-of-the-line amenities to compete with existing hotels, as well as to help them stand out from the competition.

這使不惜血本、投入大筆資金修建最佳設(shè)施的新建酒店擁有了一定的實(shí)力與現(xiàn)有酒店進(jìn)行競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，同時(shí)也幫助它們?cè)诟?jìng)爭(zhēng)中嶄露頭角。

When New York City’s Alex hotel opened in March, the challenge was to lure business travelers away from the established hotels in town, which is never an easy task.

紐約的阿歷克斯酒店在3月份開張之時(shí)，其面臨的挑戰(zhàn)是如何把商務(wù)客人從城里其他知名酒店吸引過來，這并非輕而易舉。

Apart from the novelty appeal of staying in a new hotel, the Alex—located in midtown near Grand Central Station—offers its long-term guests corporate suites equipped with Sub-Zero refrigerators, Poggenpohl cabinets and Miele dishwashers.

除了下榻新酒店、享受新奇體驗(yàn)的吸引力之外，位于紐約中心中央車站附近的阿歷克斯酒店還為其長(zhǎng)期住客提供配有美國(guó)名牌零下冰箱、德國(guó)極品出具品牌博德寶以及德國(guó)家電名牌迷麗洗碗機(jī)的公司套房。

Call it culinary name dropping, but it helps the hotel stand out from the pack.

人們盡可稱其為依靠名牌廚具提高身價(jià)，但這么做著實(shí)使該酒店在眾多競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手中獨(dú)樹一幟。

The new Bulgari hotel in Milan did not have to rely on expensive imported appliances to lure new travelers.

意大利米蘭新落成的巴格里酒店無需依靠昂貴的進(jìn)口電器吸引新的商務(wù)旅客。

The hotel’s draw was its novel concept.

該酒店的魅力在于其全新的概念。

The Bulgari hotel is the first to be rolled out by the Italian luxury goods company, as part of a new partnership with the Ritz-Carlton, a division industry who are always seeking the latest trend.

該酒店是第一家由意大利豪華奢侈品公司巴格力創(chuàng)辦的酒店，是與萬豪國(guó)際酒店集團(tuán)下屬麗嘉酒店新建立的合作項(xiàng)目?jī)?nèi)容之一。

But checking into a brand new hotel can have its drawbacks.

但入住一家新開張的酒店也有種種不便之處。

Every new hotel has its “teething issues，” and it can take several months to a year for a hotel to fully find its legs.

所有新酒店在開業(yè)初期都存在各種問題，需要幾個(gè)月到一年的時(shí)間才能真正站穩(wěn)腳跟。

A well-trained staff, even those at the top hotels, do not materialize over night, so glitches are to be expected.

即便在一些名列前茅的酒店中，也不可能在一夜之間就擁有一批受過良好培訓(xùn)的員工，因此，難免存在這樣那樣的差錯(cuò)和不如人意之處。

One thing that can ease the pain is the price.

彌補(bǔ)手段之一是通過價(jià)格杠桿。

Nearly all new hotels offer a low introductory rate to drum up business, which can offer a significant savings.

幾乎所有的新酒店都提供低廉的試開業(yè)價(jià)格來招攬生意，客人可以因此省下一筆客觀的錢。

So get out the corporate card and sample one of the new hotels which have opened up around the world.

因此，拿出公司卡，從中挑選出一家新開張的酒店。

You’ll appreciate the new design and gadgets, while the accounting department will be pleased by the price.

如此一來，你既能領(lǐng)略到新潮的裝修設(shè)計(jì)和科技裝置，公司的財(cái)務(wù)部門也會(huì)對(duì)其低廉的房?jī)r(jià)喜笑顏開。
