Surely the current financial climate is precisely the time the company should be looking to secure deals at hotels above the current 3 star standard that we endure in some ports.
The Rama Garden would be a good place to start. The fact that it's now located at completely the opposite side of the city, coupled with the noisy, old, smelly, and light filled rooms should be grounds for a move. So what if it's been housing CX staff for 40 years, it's still well below par.
Vancouver's already been mentioned. London Hammersmith is only tolerated because everyone fears the alternative is the airport. Incheon, Taipai, the list goes on...........
If the people "negotiating" the contracts at the hotels can't get a good deal in the current climate perhaps we should ship them off to the fuel hedging division..............
