A third of people have switched hotel rooms due to ‘bad air’
ew research has uncovered the significant influence of air conditioning and ventilation on top-tier hospitality experiences, emphasising the vital role of air as a wellness trend gaining traction within the industry.
The study of over 2,000 people, commissioned by MAPUK, sheds light on the critical role HVAC plays in guest satisfaction and loyalty within the hospitality industry. According to the research, poor air distribution and ventilation are likely to deter three in four guests from returning to a hotel or restaurant.
Commenting on the survey results, Barry Hobday, managing director at MAPUK said: “In 2024, effective HVAC solutions have become an imperative – it plays a vital role in our health, well-being and overall comfort within any building. Balancing the best possible HVAC environment with sustainability, style and comfort is becoming paramount, with commercial success depending on its effective implementation.” Establishments that invest in cutting-edge ventilation technologies that integrate harmoniously with their interior design, are poised to lead the industry, offering guests unparalleled comfort and wellbeing during their visit.” *Image by Engin Akyurt from Pixabay
