Meeting Room Rental

Ok folks want me to define annoying. I will do it..to planners it is meeting room rental. It doesn’t mean that we don’t want the hotels to NOT  charge  rental what this  means is what we want is REASONIBLE RENTAL. I have a client that is using 250 room nights; $32,000++ in F & B and she is getting charged $8,000 in room rental. All of this is bullshit.

Especially in today’s economy.

Oh and here is the kicker. She was NEVER TOLD THERE WAS going to be a room rental what the Marriott  did was just put it on the BEO’s and thought she wasn’t going to notice it. Hotels you do have an obligation to let your clients know meeting room rental in advance. You communicate banqueting prices; I go into Macy’s and get my dress with the price tag on it? So where is the difference?

That is my story for now and I am sticking to it.
