B B's Lure Business Travelers May 14, 2002 By MARCI ALBOHER NUSBAUM Craig Kaufman woke up in a Hilton Hotel in Orlando, Fla., and thought he was in the Denver Hilton. Then he noticed the palm trees outside the window and realized he had gotten his days mixed up. At that moment, he decided he had had it with cookie-cutter accommodations on his business trips. The next time he went to Orlando, he checked into the Thurston House, a bed-and-breakfast. That was a year ago, and since then, he has stayed at the Thurston House a dozen times. Thurston House has all the amenities of a hotel, but it's homey said Mr. Kaufman, a real estate developer based in Atlanta. They serve wine and cheese on the veranda in the afternoon. It's quiet. And when I come back at night, the kitchen is open if I want to take a cup of tea back to my room. And it is not just the atmosphere that delights him. Carole Ballard, the innkeeper, keeps him plugged into the local business climate in Orlando. Mr. Kaufman says that getting to know Ms. Ballard has helped him understand the needs of the tenants in his buildings, who are also small- business owners. B B's have long attracted travelers with a taste for the personal touch. Their distinguishing features, according to the Professional Association of Innkeepers International, are individually decorated rooms, a common area where guests can congregate, a resident innkeeper or owner and a home-cooked breakfast. That makes them ideal weekend retreats for the romantically inclined. But in recent years, many B B's have reinvented themselves to compete more directly with the hotel chains for business travelers as well. They are providing guests with Internet access, dual phone lines and fax machines, and are offering conveniences like airport transportation and corporate discounts. The B B's can't match the big hotels service for service, of course; few have the resources to send up a shrimp salad and bottle of wine in the middle of the night. But, they believe, their very smallness gives them a competitive advantage by allowing the owners to establish personal bonds with their customers. Cynthia and George Wakeman, owners of two bed-and-breakfasts in Sioux City, Iowa, often introduce business guests to a friendly face at the local Chamber of Commerce or line up meetings for them with local business leaders. The Wakemans also say that their close ties with Gateway Inc., one of Sioux City's largest employers and their own former workplace, has made them a frequent lodging choice for the company's recruiting efforts. We see ourselves as partners with the businesses we serve, Mrs. Wakeman said. B B's also say their appeal as a place to hold business conferences for small groups is growing. Diane and Michael Franco, who recently bought the Churchtown Inn in Lancaster County, Pa., say the pastoral setting is a big draw. In their first year as owners, the couple say, the national sales representatives of the Longaberger Company, an Ohio marketer of handwoven baskets, met at their establishment and Argosy Health, a national provider of industrial rehabilitation services, held a strategic planning meeting there for one of its regional management teams. We don't have all the accouterments of business, yet people are coming to our inn because they want to do business a little differently, Mrs. Franco said. The Amish country has an almost narcotic effect. It just calms business people down. Sarah Hammann, a marketing executive who has stayed at many bed-and-breakfasts in Europe and the United States during the last decade, says she values their intimacy. Even though larger hotels offer a wider array of conveniences, she says, that does not make up for the impersonal atmosphere. While I need basic services like the ability to get faxes, have an early breakfast and enter the house late in the evenings, I don't expect to plug in my laptop, she said. Like many female business travelers, Ms. Hammann said she also felt more secure staying at an inn than at a hotel. Safety has long been a selling point for bed-and-breakfasts, of course, but these days there are a lot more buyers. So many people have called us since Sept.11 who say they don't normally stay at bed-and-breakfasts, said Lydia Pena Simone, manager of the Dupont at the Circle in Washington. But they want an extra bit of hand-holding. They like a place where everyone in the inn is known. The Internet has been a boon to B B's. For years, our industry did not have branding and the 800 numbers of big hotel chains, said Jerry Phillips of the Professional Association of Innkeepers International. But over the last five years, he said, the Internet has leveled the playing field. Sites like Inn-BusinessTravel.com (founded by Carole Ballard of Thurston House) as well as a site called bedandbreakfast.com offer travelers inns searchable by city. In addition there are the Web sites of individual inns. While the trend may be big news for the B B industry, it is doubtful that it will cause much of a stir among the major hotel chains. The amount of rooms B B's represent in the scheme of things is so inconsequential that I can't imagine it having a big effect, even if it did catch on, said Neil Kantrow, a New York travel agent with a largely...
