Glass Island - A Design Philosophy based on Hygiene
Glass Island luxury boutique accommodation, was born in June 2018 after several years and thousands of hours of 'research and development' in the hospitality sector. The design from inception to opening was led by a tripartite philosophy developed from the results of that research. The philosophy's components were:
​
-
Hygiene
-
Luxury
-
Customer Service
​
Our research found that the number one consideration for guests was Hygiene. It's further backed up by P&G Professional, who's own independent analysis shows 78% of hotel guests believe cleanliness is the most important factor affecting their choice of where to stay.
​
