Room Evolution

We've been a little quiet on the blog lately largely due to being preoccupied with some redesign plans for the hotel. That's led to a lot of thought on have hotels kept ahead of consumerism? There was an article recently noting that once upon a time the promise of a hot shower and a clean bed was enough but now rest and relaxation run a poor second to hooking up a wi fi network and recharging smart phones, notebooks and other devices. There was a time when checking in to a hotel meant accessing the things you didn't have at home or in the office, the flat screen tv's, the built in room to room stereos and the like. There seems to have been a lull where hotels have been lagging behind private homes, but reading some trade press recently the next evolution of hotels are getting really 'cool' again. What would be on your room wish list?
