Savannah is a town one has to experience in person. Words and pictures fail to capture the true essence of this amazing historic city, although I will give it my best. It is the oldest city in Georgia, established in 1733, on the banks of the Savannah river. In the main historic district, there are over 20 huge squares, with massive oaks towering overhead, each tree festooned with Spanish moss. Walking through the historic district is really like taking a...

NEGOTIATE ALL OF YOUR COSTS UP FRONT – Make sure that all of your f&b, labor, AV, entertainment and rental costs are all negotiated up front.  You don’t ANY surprises when you see the bill. WORK WITH THE EXECUTIVE CHEF...

Site Inspection report - Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun provided by HPN Global - Timothy Arnold Last week, I had the chance to visit Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun hotels, both in Connecticut. Very impressed by both hotels, although they are similar products, they are completely different. Lobby of the Fox Tower at Foxwoods Foxwoods is celebrating their 25th anniversary, and the hotel is amazing. The whole complex has about 2300 rooms spread over five areas, but the majority of the rooms are in the...

One of the chief joys when traveling is visiting a world-class, historic city for the first time. That first time you set out to explore a metropolis, is like the morning after a snow fall. The virgin snow stretches out as far as the eye can see, just awaiting your footprints and the mark you will make. That promise of adventure and wonder is one of the best feelings in the world. Of course, the tired satisfaction of coming back...
