Manage episode 338041435 series 2418353
It’s getting more and more difficult to remember a time before rideshare apps like Über and Lyft ever existed, essentially putting a taxi service in our back pockets. Hotel properties receiving these guests are beginning to feel the impact that this ubiquitous technology is having on the design of their spaces. In this episode, Shannon Suess, principal at Seattle-based MG2, sits down with chief content director Robert Nieminen to dig deeper into the ways in which ride sharing apps are forcing hospitality designers to rethink the guest arrival and departure sequence, as well as the challenges and opportunities that exist for hotels to engage this captive audience.
