The Festivity Desk

Every hotel should have a Festivity Desk.

There is one in our hotel. We aren’t quite sure what the lovely young man sitting there actually does, because nobody talks to him. There is already a Concierge desk in the lobby and they are extremely helpful with restaurant reservations, car pickups, airline related stuff, touristy recommendation stuff, etc.

There is also another set of desks where you can sit and talk to other people about stuff you need help with and to pay for your room.

So we just aren’t sure what the purpose of the Festivity Desk is, but the guy there sure looks happy. Maybe it’s because he gets paid to smile at people and nobody asks him questions. And his desk has a sign on it.

He was really pleased that I talked to him and asked to take his picture. That in itself was a very festive experience.

Off to the airport to head to Jaisalmer. This is getting real now.Read more
