In New York: The Carlyle – "Though hotel residents are of various shapes, sizes and ages, the population tends to skew toward older and a high tax bracket, said Marcie Lieberman, hotel manager at The Carlyle. "It's usually a person step top. People have come to some comfort and love to live in an environment where things are available, "he said.

Combine that with the right amount of pampering, and you have the answer to the prayers of an inhabitant of the hotel – everything ends on recreation. The Ritz-Carlton on Central Park South, for example, offers inclusive and on demand services for any position of wanting a massage to the need for diamonds at any time. "(Daniel Bubbeo, Newsday)

In London: "John Petch, sales director of boutique hotel group, GLA Hotels (owners of the Lancaster in Paris and the Cadogan Hotel in London) began his career with the Savoy group in the 1980s. At that time, the fifth floor at Claridges was reserved for long-term customers. But in the 1990s, he says, the residence of hotel was dying. Even the wealthy while maintaining considered uneconomical and turned their attention to affordable second home investment opportunities.

However, the tide is changing, both in Lancaster and Cadogan have three long-stay residents who use the hotels as their bases in the city. "The people are returning to the hotel due to security and service, "says Petch. excel in boutique hotels provide a home away from home atmosphere backed with personalized service. "If you have a flat, can have a person to look after you," he says. "Here is our entire staff on duty." (Tracy Hoffman, Financial Times)
