And the standard of the entertainment facilities is also an important element to measure a hotel. Entertainment facilities in a hotel often include KTVs, bars, ballrooms and even casinos in some hotels such as Hotel Lisboa in Macau and MGM Grand Hotel Casino in Las Vegas. Good entertainment facilities can help attract guests to the hotel besides its good rooms, services and other elements. And these facilities are also the very important parts for a hotel’s income. So the hotels are always trying to improve their entertainment facilities to attract more guests. The expenditures on entertainment facilities are not included into the quote prices of the rooms. Fees will be charged separately for all consumption of those. It is necessary to let the guests know the charge standards before recommending them to use these facilities in order to avoid complaints.
