This next one is also related to hotels: London - (April 1, 2009) - iBAHN, the worldwide leader in digital entertainment and Internet solutions for the hospitality and meeting industries, today announces the results of an online campaign to create a hotel room designed by the public.

The online collaboration produced some interesting results, now available on the Our Hotel Room website, (www.ourhotelroom.co.uk) which show that almost 20% of respondents rate tiered internet connectivity, including a free base service, as top of their wish list.

This third one mentions hotels trying to drum up summer business in a ski town: Now, six local hotels have banded together to bring summer back to this island in the White Mountains National Forest.

And unlike other ski towns, there are a strong host of reasons why.
Thanks to the White Mountain National Forest, Waterville Valley is home to the oldest network of hiking trails in America.

Hikers have been exploring Waterville Valley since the 1800s, when a group of guests at Greeley's Hotel formed the Waterville Athletic and Improvement Association. The association is still in existence today and continues to oversee the valley's 100 miles of trails, which range from easy walking paths to heart-thumping ascents. Visitors can stroll around Corcoran Pond in the Town Square, wander the woods and search for wildflowers, or hike up the 4,315-ft. summit of Mount Osceola. No matter the location, there's always a view.

The website has all winter pictures though...
