When you first walk into a fancy hotel you are usually greeted with the warm sounds of classical music. Perhaps it is Greensleeves or Pachelbel’s Canon in D. You check in, and make your way to the elevator where the music gets slightly louder. Then you make your way to the hotel's restaurant and some how the song that you thought you'd left in the elevator picks up right where it left off. Finally after your third course and the forth version of Greensleeves you have had enough. In one last valiant attempt for your sanity you spill wine all over your dinner guest's clothing ruining everyone's night and possibly the entire trip!
If you know this scenario all to well you may want to get on the mp3 bandwagon just like St David's Hotel & Spa in Cardiff. Guests at the hotel are completely free from listening to repeat music thanks to an MP3 style selection of more than 20,000 songs.
Management at the St David's Hotel & Spa have detected that the so-called iPod generation doesn't appreciate bland tunes playing in the background, and would much rather listen to the music they choose.
St David's has responded to customer taste by installing technology that will provide guests access to a 20,000-strong music library in each of its private dining and eight conference rooms.
