Luxury hotels looking at more in-room pampering

A growing trend among many luxury hotel and resort properties: offering in-room menus to allow guests to decide the comforts and personal care they want. For example:

* The Viceroy Santa Monica in California has a luxury mini-bar in the bathroom where guests can pick and choose from upscale body care products.
* Langham Hotels in Boston and other areas offer a choice of pillows ranging from 75% duck feathers to 80% goose down.
* The White Barn Inn & Spa in Kennebunkport, Maine, has a new bath menu that includes a wide variety of offerings that include treatments rich in vitamins and minerals. All selections are $55.

Luxury Hotels in the US seem to have a very high standard and offer an extremely outstanding service. Well, the US is a society where costumer service has a very high priority in comparision to many other countries in Europe. Luxury Hotels however should always have a high standard no matter where you travel to. Well, for the international chains, like holiday inn's and others that is certainly true. And I think the very top end luxury hotels are always well equipped. TK
