\"Technology:<\/div>\n
\n

T<\/span>echnology has been quickly evolving into many markets such as clothing, food, health, home, and hotels are certainly no exception. As the industry is disrupted by more privatized options such as Airbnb<\/a> and VRBO, Bloomberg reports that technology has become \u201ctop of mind for hotels<\/a>,\u201d as they seek to compete by providing amenities and new services for luxury vacationers and business travelers. Many hotels are adopting technology that enables more engaging, customized and immersive guest experience; these systems have become a Trojan Horse for the hotel industry to embrace higher-tech sustainability practices.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
