Books for Students
( words)
We provide hotel management schools/universities worldwide with our collection of historic hotel books. Beneficiaries include IMC Krems, Klessheim College of Hotel Management, Cornell University, and Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne, among over 100 prestigious institutions.
This collaboration offers students unique insights into the vital role of history within hospitality, empowering future leaders to confidently communicate their hotel’s heritage and deepening their understanding of the industry’s global evolution. History, often an overlooked unique selling point (USP), becomes a potent asset in a competitive market when skilfully leveraged.
Books are donated to institutions for the benefit of all students, accessible through the library.
