Breakfast in hotel rooms and dinners a la carte while check-in and check out will be done from a distance via smartphones, with a glass partition separating guests and staff at the reception desk, ANA reports.
Greek hotels are already gearing up for the day after lockdown. On the island of Crete, the hoteliers union is collaborating with regional authorities, the University of Crete, and the Greek National Health System and has commissioned Howarth International to prepare a study on what the “new normal” for hotels should look like. “The results are expected to be ready in two weeks,” the president of the Hoteliers Union of Crete, Nikos Halkiadakis, told the Athens-Macedonian News Agency.
A source of concern is the potential arrival of tourists that might not be accurately diagnosed by the tests carried out before they travel abroad so a “health protocol” that will determine the rules for hotel operation in the era of coronavirus is almost ready.
