Millennial travelers want the opposite of what their parents looked for in a hotel. Marriott International says that while Boomers “wanted familiarity, safety, and comfort,” the next generation of travelers “want local and unique.” Global experiments in changing hotels to match their preferences have resulted in pop-up roof bars and locally sourced cheese-and-charcuterie restaurants. The brand predicts that Millennials could make up half of their guests by 2020—if they are able to appeal to them. (Fast Company)
