ISheraton Brooklyn iza kuvula iingcango zayo ngoLwesine ingenisa ixesha elitsha lokhuphiswano kwindawo engakhathalelwanga lishishini lehotele.
Phantse iminyaka eli-12, iMarriott kumbindi wedolophu yaseBrooklyn ibiyeyona hotele inenkonzo epheleleyo, isonwabele ukuzimela xa kufikelelwa ekubhukisheni uninzi lwabaqokeleli-mali bezopolitiko basekhaya, iibar mitzvahs, iindibano zenkampani kunye nolwamkelo loluntu.
Olo lawulo luya kuphela xa iSheraton isika iribhoni kwihotele yayo entsha enamagumbi angama-321 kumgama oziibhloko ezimbalwa. I-Sheraton Brooklyn, uphawu oluphantsi kwe-Starwood Hotels & Resorts, yinxalenye yokwandiswa kweebhiliyoni ezi-5 zeerandi eziquka ukuvula iihotele ezingama-50 kwihlabathi liphela kule minyaka mithathu izayo. Ikhonkco lehotele licwangciselwe ukuvula iSheraton eTribeca ngoSeptemba.
Ukuvulwa kweBrooklyn kuza njengoko iihotele zesiXeko saseNew York zibuyela ekuwohlokeni ngokukhawuleza kunalo lonke ishishini. Ukudodobala koqoqosho okukhohlakeleyo kunyanzelise abathengi abaninzi ukuba bayeke iiholide kunye neenkampani ukuba banciphise uhambo lweshishini olunyanzela amatyathanga ehotele ukuba abonelele ngamaxabiso asezantsi entengiso ukuze azalise amagumbi angenanto.
Kodwa iNew York ibona ukukhula kwezokhenketho kunye nabahambi beshishini. Amanqanaba okuhlala kwiihotele zeSixeko saseNew York anyuke ukuya kwi-72% kwikota yokuqala, i-11.6 yeepesenti ukusuka kunyaka odlulileyo, ngokutsho kwe-Smith Travel Research.
Okwangoku, ingeniso ngegumbi elikhoyo lenyuke nge-7.6% ukuya kwi-135 yeedola ngelixa umyinge wesizwe wehla nge-2% ukuya kwi-50 yeedola.
Kangangeminyaka, ubulumko obuqhelekileyo yayikukuba iBrooklyn ayinakukwazi ukuxhasa ihotele enkulu. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, uninzi lwabakhenkethi kunye nabahambi beshishini bakhetha ukuhlala eManhattan kufutshane nethiyetha, iindawo zokutyela kunye nezokhenketho.
I-New York Marriott kwiBridge yaseBrooklyn yavulwa ngo-1998 kwaye yabonisa ngokukhawuleza ukuba abantu abangakholelwayo baphosakele ngokutsala abahambi bezoshishino kunye nabakhenkethi. Ngo-2006, iye yanda kakhulu eyanyusa inani lamagumbi ukuya kuma-668 ukusuka kuma-376.
“IBrooklyn ngoku sele iyindawo ekusingwa kuyo,” utshilo umphuhlisi kaMariot, uJoshua Muss. “Ngeendlela ezininzi yi-Manhattan [engaphaya] ngokwemigaqo yobuhle…indawo zokutya [kunye] nezinye iindawo zokuhlala.”
Inxalenye yempumelelo kaMnu. Muss yavela kwikhono likaMarriott lokutsala imicimbi yoluntu. Imibutho yaseBrooklyn yaqesha isidlo sayo kunye nendawo yokuhlanganisana kunokuba yenze uhambo oluya eManhattan. I-Marriott iye yaduma kuluntu lwamaYuda angama-Orthodox ngenxa yokuba inekhitshi elizinikeleyo le-kosher.
I-Sheraton ilungiselela ukubamba esinye sesabelo semarike sikaMarriott. Nayo, nayo, izakuba nekhitshi le-kosher eligcweleyo kunye ne-4,300 yeenyawo zesikwere sendawo yokuhlangana.
“Singakwazi ukuhlangabezana neemfuno zeendwendwe ezingenayo kuphela, kodwa noluntu lwasekuhlaleni ngokunjalo,” utsho uHoyt Harper, usekela mongameli ophezulu kunye nenkokeli yegama lehlabathi kwiSheraton Hotels and Resorts.
UMnu. Muss uthi akakhathazwa ngumntwana omtsha okwibloko.
“Ndiyakholelwa….Ibhulorho yaseMarriott yaseBrooklyn ayinakukhuphisana nayo kwaye iya kuzibamba kumashumi eminyaka alandelayo,” utshilo. Andikholelwa ukuba kukho nabani na onokuphinda oku kulula, izinto eziluncedo, indawo [kunye] nendawo yokupaka.
ISheraton Brooklyn yeyeqela leLam, umakhi waseNew York ongumnini weehotele ezininzi kakhulu eNew York, kwaye ilawulwa yiSheraton.
Ikhonkco lehotele ekuqaleni lalicwangcise ukuvula kulo nyaka uphelileyo, kodwa ukuqaliswa kwalibaziseka ngenxa yoqoqosho. “Ngokucacileyo ngoqoqosho, sifuna ixesha elingakumbi lokugqibezela le nkqubo,” utshilo uMnu. Harper.
Iqela leehotele zeboutique ezingenandawo yendibano ziye zavulwa eBrooklyn kwiminyaka yakutshanje kuquka iNU Hotel edolophini kunye neHotele Le Bleu ePark Slope.
Iihotele zeStarwood kulindeleke ukuba zivule ihotele yaseAloft, uphawu lwayo olutsha, ngo-Okthobha.
Uninzi lwezinye iihotele zicwangcisiwe kodwa azikaphumi ebhodini lokuzoba ngenxa yoqoqosho.
Kukho malunga neehotele ezingama-20 ezibandakanya indawo yokulala kunye nesidlo sakusasa eBrooklyn, isixa esincinci esinikwe indawo yokuhlala kubahlali abazizigidi ezi-2.5.
