Assignment/Coursework Brief 
Hospitality facilities in terms of this module are those spaces which the customer has access to either passing through, as a personal space as in their room or a space where they will be attending an event with others. Whether these facilities are part of new builds, conversions or refurbishments, the success or failure of the host business will depend on how effectively the design provides the correct functionality to the facilities and services to satisfy the targeted customers in a highly competitive market. Customer areas are the major focus but equally as important are the back-office activities that support successful and efficient operations.
