Creating a Private 7-Star Experience at Home: The New Standard of Hospitality
Hosting is an art; a thousand cogs working seamlessly to present the impression of an effortless event or celebration. There is a way to make sure you meet the most exacting standards of hospitality, providing a private experience that will match the best offerings of seven-star hotels, and doing so with much more privacy and discretion. Turn your next hosting experience into a knockout. Let’s take a closer look.
What Does a Seven-Star Experience Mean?
While five-star hotels offer a luxurious and pampering accommodation to travellers, seven-star hotels offer that something more: personalisation. So, while a five-star hotel might offer wagyu beef, the finest line-caught salmon and exquisite chocolate tortes dusted with gold powder, seven-star hotels offer cocktails made with your favourite ingredients, suites decorated to your taste, and bathrooms stocked with products that are designed for your personal use.
While this is quite incredible for a hotel to offer, it is a little easier for you to manage this at home, especially if you have good staff who work quickly and efficiently. It is not so hard, when your guests are coming at your invitation, to find out what their favourite foods, drinks and toiletries are, and lay them in to the guest suite that they will be using for the duration of their stay.
Offer Something Truly Unique
As well as making sure that their slightest desire is catered for on the material front, also try to provide a unique event at your home: hire a world-famous singer to croon to your guests, arrange to have a movie premier in your home’s showing room, or invite a high-powered designer to hold a fashion show in your home.
As long as you offer something that cannot easily be bought elsewhere, you will have provided a wonderful experience that your guests will remember for a long time. Ensure they feel that they’ve had a once-in-a-lifetime experience by providing high-end events and access to people and items.
Make it Happen With Manpower
Of course, all of this takes a lot of work and planning, so it is important to ensure that your home is well-staffed. And this manpower should be available in the run-up to the event as well as on the night in question, so that you can organise your home exactly to your wishes without any excess strain or risk of breakages. Well-trained hospitality staff who are accustomed to working in luxe private homes are readily available from agencies such as Cora Partners, and they will all arrive vetted, trained and ready to help you make a wonderful impression on your guests.
If you have sufficient funds and a good eye for planning, there is no reason why you should not be able to provide a seven-star experience to your guests to celebrate whatever landmark anniversary you wish to mark, thereby making a wonderful memory for them – and for you too, as you look back and bask in the thought of your success!
