Summary
From our Season 12 Archives, one of our favourites.
This week, we talk about hotel marketing.
Specifically, how some hotels attract guests by advertising specific rooms.
Some of those rooms are decorated like TV shows, some are inspired by movies, and some hotels advertise the fact something famous – or infamous - happened in their rooms.
