The hotel foodservice industry is in the midst of reinventing itself. Emerging from a
recession that drained almost 18% in foodservice revenue in just two years, the hotel
industry is experimenting en masse with new menu, design and technology concepts that

Going forward, Packaged Facts expects hotel foodservice sales to rise approximately 4.8%
in 2011 and 2.8% in 2012, driven by higher hotel occupancy rates and related travel
expenditures. As guests arrive, they will find that hotels have worked aggressively to meet
consumers’ evolving expectations and needs, which is reflected in our analysis of key hotel
food and beverage trends such as restaurant and hotel design, daypart strategies, balancing
indulgence, health and convenience, and price and value. Sustainability is also a core
expectation—which has not been lost on hoteliers rolling out everything from rooftop
gardens to farmers’ markets to sustainable menu items.
But technological advancement provides some of the newest and most promising changes.
The report assesses hotel industry players providing technology leadership by harnessing
technology trends to transform the industry while driving growth; it illustrates how hotels
can empower their foodservice offerings by tying them into the powerful Facebook social
networking platform, Twitter concierge services, and even creating their own social
networking experiences for guests. Hotel Foodservice Trends in the U.S. covers the U.S.
hotel foodservice industry, which provides restaurant, bar, café, catering and room service
foodservice options to its guests. In addition to detailed trend analysis, the report provides
thorough marketing and forecasting metrics, hotel foodservice growth factor analysis, and
thorough analysis of leading hotel foodservice operations (including foodservice strategies
by company and brand; brand characteristics, and food-driven trend adaption). The report
provides the insight hotel foodservice participants need to understand these needs and
frame their strategies accordingly.
