Bog beskrivelse

Peter Cox and Peter Robinson invite you to explore the rich and diverse history of the British hospitality industry from the earliest Roman establishments to the refined hotels of today. They illustrate how historical events, cultural shifts, and technological advancements have continually reshaped our hospitality experiences.

Beginning in ancient times, when the Romans introduced public lodging and communal bathing to Britain, the book sets the stage for future hospitality services. It explores medieval and Tudor hospitality, where monasteries and manor houses were essential in providing shelter and sustenance. The Industrial Revolution brought new culinary traditions and the emergence of coaching inns and railway hotels, transforming travel and accommodation. European influences introduced novel cuisines and service styles, raising the standards of British hospitality, while iconic establishments such as The Ritz and The Savoy set new benchmarks for luxury and service.

Each chapter of this book provides a glimpse into different eras of this multifaceted industry, weaving together stories of tradition, innovation, and the timeless human desire for connection and comfort. Richly illustrated and carefully researched, this book celebrates the British hospitality industry in all its glory.
