Hotel Blog Watch: Yvonne Lembi-Detert and Personality Hotels

September 19, 2006 at 10:40 AM | 0 Comments

Today we continue our second installment of our Hot Hotelier News featuring Yvonne Lembi-Detert. Yesterday we looked at how Yvonne got started with her boutique chain, Personality Hotels, in San Francisco. Turns out, Yvonne has been blogging at Behind Open Doors.

Here's a sample of one of Yvonne's recent entries:

Hotels open so many doors. Think about it. Not only do the guest room doors open to accommodate my very special guests who select Personality Hotels, but doors in life open up. The wedding honeymoon, the get-a-away in a new relationship, the weekend trip so desperately needed by parents taking a break from their kids, the rendezvous a.k.a. the affair....What I love most about my job & the industry is the relationships that build from the doors that open. Hospitality will never be a thing of the past it is getting more sophisticated and friendlier. I know I can vouch for that with PH's.

Yvonne told HotelChatter that she wanted her blog to be about her day-to-day stuff like customer service and events going on at the hotels.

So far, Yvonne's friends and industry execs are fans of the blog, natch. "Old employees find my blog and email me and I've been invited to speak at hotel industry functions because of the blog," she said."It's open several doors to the past, present and future."

However, Yvonne admits that she doesn't have as much time as she would like to write the blog. "My daughters remind me, 'Did you blog today Mom?' she said. We agree with the kids--it is time to up those daily posting levels!
