FIVE STAR HOTEL (ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE PROJECT TOPICS AND MATERIALS)
ABSTRACT
This project topic has it genesis in my desire to do an intensive, demanding, but rewarding topic for the thesis project since Enugu state doesn’t have any existing five –star hotel. The emergency of Governor Sullivan chime as the executive is another catalyst for the project. From 2007 till date his government has brought a face life for the state as well as an attendant influx of personnel for both business and state affairs, hence such a will solve the problem of inadequate hotel accommodation, boast potentials for the state and provide an international business connection centre for both local and foreign businessmen. This project topic will meet up with the following, objective such as: assessing the development of hotel industry in Enugu state in particular and Nigeria in general, determining the socio-economic implications of hotel development in Enugu state, it should be capable of catering for national and international gust in their diversity of needs, food, lodging service and recreation, it should also strive to project the rich cultural heritage of Enugu state. In order to achieve these objectives I had to embark upon proper research procedures which are mainly the use of deductive analysis. Some of the procedures include site/field visit, use of semi – standardized interview, literature reviews, questionnaire, face-to-face interviews, consultations from text books, journals and internet facilities. However diligent use of collected. Not minding the time constraint, the researcher was able to complete his work.
CHAPTER ONE:
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF STUDY
STATEMENT OF ARCHITECTURAL PROBLEMS.
A hotel can be said to wear two faces. The paying customer sees only the “front of the complex” and this must be all he desires- a wish fulfillment, an ago blinder, a status symbol and the promise of great delight.
The “back of the hotel complex “is all that makes things happen. These include the kitchens, stores, service, etc. this area must be laid out with two paramount objectives: control and efficiency. Control is important because pilfering is a real danger while inefficiency results in time wastage and reduction in productivity.
When a guest enters the hotel lobby, he should be over whelmed by a feeling of serenity or enchantment or revulsion,- but never confusion. The registration desk for instance and the elevators should be immediately apparent. The main administrative area usually backs up to the desk. The restaurants, bars and other such spaces should be either visible from or well indicated in the lobby area.,
