Samantha Lim – The Carlyle Site Visit

What did you like/dislike about the site visit to The Carlyle?

I like how Carlyle is unique in terms of having different art decor in each of the 195 rooms they have. Even the dining room was separated by color coding rooms. Moreover, their room key is very unique. Instead of using electronic card keys, they use a traditional room key but is electronically activated which was really cool. I have never seen that in my life before. It was The Carlyle’s way of remaining the “old-fashion” and vintage look for the hotel.

What was the most significant information you learned while at The Carlyle?

The most significant information i have learned while at The Carlyle is don’t set your mind into one specific thing, explore more because you don’t know what you opportunities you will end up with. For instance, the Director of Room Operations started out in the department of Food and Beverage, she didn’t know she would end up as the Director of Room Operations until she was given the opportunity to.
