Hotel Design – High-end Hotel’s functional areas and their necessary support space(5)- Children’s Activity Area
Why do you need to plan a non-major revenue area space for children? What is the location of its planning?
The previous article and you shared about the health area content, and today Jianjiangma and the group went on to talk about the children’s activity area, in fact, there are designers in the planning to define this function as the function of the wellness area. This should be different in the understanding and definition of Jianjiangma.
Jian Jiangma is more to consider it as a support space for the wellness area, which is why Jianjiangma should keep the content close to the purpose of the sports area later written. If it is not in the support space as a wellness area, this article will also focus on the end of the article.
Hot spring space is generally not suitable for younger children, or children are not suitable for long-term hot spring. Therefore, high-end hotels in the configuration of health or hot spring space, generally also need to configure this children’s activity area.
Wellness or hot spring space is mainly for the hotel adults to provide functional supporting space, so you need to consider the needs of guests with children to use the function, to provide children with activity area or entertainment area. This makes it easy to understand the need to plan space for such non-primary revenues.
Therefore, children’s entertainment areas or activity areas often follow the wellness area next to the set to be good. This kind of space is often referred to by insiders as a children’s activity center or children’s recreation center.
Children’s activity centers or children’s entertainment centers are generally charged on time, and when children need to eat, they are charged separately, while the benefits are mostly negative, or the effect is not cost-effective. More as a support space, there is no gain that can be accepted (the price of the room is more considered to share the operating costs of the space). This kind of space solves the problem of staying in the hotel as a family for a certain period of time so that parents can rest assured that the short time to leave the child without worry for the purpose.
Without a parent, children’s meals cannot be materialized in the hotel’s service standards, and recipes and amounts vary from person to person, especially for children. Therefore, the children’s activity area generally does not include the reception of children’s meals service.
If the guest’s special circumstances require a reception service for children’s meals, the hotel will also discuss with parents in advance, and determine the children’s relatively simple nutrition of the recipe and amount of food, and ask for clear precautions for children’s meals. In this regard, children’s activity center or children’s entertainment center attendants need to do a good job of recording, in advance to prepare for the shift or special shift transfer procedures and must report to the department head.
In addition to the hassle of hosting and handling children’s meals at the hotel’s children’s activity center or children’s recreation center, safety and lunch breaks are also issues that need to be addressed in this feature area.
The rest of the services may also have children’s small shops, more combined with the front desk, and children’s playground, puzzle games (mainly including building blocks, puzzles, etc.), handicrafts, painting, reading and learning, chat, audio, and video, video games and other entertainment items and other places.
This is the main home of the Children’s Activity Centre or the Children’s Recreation Centre, the service of this home space is relatively easy to solve, but it is still important to note that during the period of time of reception of children’s services, there must be a dedicated person on duty, under no circumstances should be removed from or off duty.
From the above,100 items, the Children’s Activity Center or Children’s Recreation Center, in addition to the children’s main place of activity, also needs to configure the children’s activity center or children’s recreation center for children’s rest sleeping area or sleeping room, children’s dining area, leisure drinking water area, toilet, etc. as the support space for this functional space.
Of course, there is also a children’s activity center or children’s entertainment center located near the dining and entertainment spaces. However, the specific functions and support spaces are different in different areas.
Configured in the vicinity of dining space and entertainment space, mostly accompanied or watched by parents. Waiters don’t need much, and they don’t need to have too much expertise in child care.
In a children’s activity center or children’s recreation center with parental care, the general time period is short and there is no need to consider too much support space for the space. Sleeping areas or sleeping rooms that do not require children’s rest, children’s dining areas, and recreational drinking areas, such as toilets, are already configured in restaurants or entertainment spaces.
This article is not about hotels with a theme of children’s activities or entertainment, as they are primarily run or profitable for children, and although they are paid for by parents, they are only complementary consumers. The main function of the hotel has changed, the main function area of the hotel is child-centered to consider, each main function area support space must be configured relative to the child.
Hotels with a theme of children’s activities or entertainment are not further developed in this article. If a friend wants to learn more, you can contact the author directly, or you can leave us a message in the message area at the end of the article.
