Forbes Travel Guide 2024: Intentionally Elevating Equality in Luxury Hospitality

The Forbes Travel Guide (FTG) recently announced the 2024 Star Award Winners and is about to host their annual Summit in Las Vegas, and among the more than 2,000 properties worldwide that have been recognized, many of these award-winners are led by women! Evidence that the tide is turning toward gender equality in hospitality.

According to recent data from the AHLA , women now hold one in four of all chief-level positions at hotel companies, and the ratio shrinks to two to one at the director level in operations. Progress is not accidental.

At the forefront of moving luxury travel toward a more equitable future,  Amanda Frasier , President of Ratings, FTG, explains how and why gender related topics have been incorporated into this year’s conference: “When we plan our agenda, we start by taking a broad look at everything from audience feedback and internal input. Of course, we look ahead to where things are moving for our industry in terms of trends and cultural shifts in society, especially in the business of luxury, and seek to find the best-in-class solutions and thought leadership to inspire our attendees each year.” 

This year’s Summit includes expert-led diversity-themed workshops on topics from “Women in Leadership” to “Navigating Gender Diversity.” The mix of presenters represents thought leadership from a variety of different viewpoints, all with the same common goal: to elevate the guest experience and to provide insight to attendees that make them better individuals, employees, employers, businesses. Amanda adds, “How you treat people, staff and guests is the differentiator between good businesses and great businesses. It is what can set you apart because the culture established from the top is ultimately what defines the experience.”

Amanda Frasier Forbes travel guide

Inclusivity and FTG Star Ratings

“What we are really looking for is if the property has thought about the more custom needs of all guest types.” Amanda explains further, “for those who wear makeup, the provision of makeup-removing products and great lighting for makeup application are always delightful to find, and less common than you think. In other cases, we want to know if the guest was “extremely comfortable” in this room. That will mean different things to different guests. For women, especially when you travel alone, it can mean when staff members knock at your door, they don’t announce your name out loud in the hallway.”

Gender-Based Design Considerations for Hotels 

From a design perspective, FTG has thought through the fact that how a woman gets ready is very different from that of a man.  Amanda notes, “when you are moving around a well-designed room, the placement of outlets, vanities, dressing areas and makeup areas, even the mirrors, should all feel “frictionless.” I am often in a hotel room where there is no full-length mirror in a suitable area, or dim light in the dressing area.”

As for her personal wishes, “I would like the ability to see who is at the door without walking to a keyhole to become a more common feature. During a recent hotel stay in Japan, the room was designed with the ability for staff to pick up and drop off your laundry and pressing without even coming into your accommodation. It was very discreet.”

Holistic Approach to Service Excellence and Employee Well-being

In the realm of unforgettable travel experiences, it's the people, more than the design elements, who bring these moments to life. Recognizing this, Forbes Travel Guide (FTG) has placed a significant emphasis on employee well-being within its training programs. The demanding nature of the hospitality industry, characterized by shift work, late hours, and often unpredictable schedules, underscores the importance of this focus. Amanda cites recent data from the American Hotel and Lodging Association (AHLA), noting that "67% of hotels in the U.S. alone are facing staffing challenges, with 80% raising wages and 33% expanding their benefits packages. Housekeeping emerges as the most critical department in need of support." Highlighting the need for a unified approach where healthcare providers and hospitality collaborate to gain advancements in employee wellness.

“Given that women constitute the majority of caregivers at home, offering easier and quicker access to preventative healthcare for female employees presents a significant opportunity for businesses to support their workforce effectively,” adds Amanda. This holistic view of service delivery and employee wellness is the key to fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace.

Look out for our next interview with five female leaders on creating a culture of Forbes Travel Guide award-winning service.

Exclusive: This New Vegas Hotel Will Have A Spa-Within-A-Spa And An Event Sauna By Forbes Travel Guide Editor Jennifer Kester

September 19, 2023

Lapis Spa at Fontainebleau Las Vegas

When Fontainebleau Las Vegas makes its long-awaited debut Dec. 13, it will unveil Lapis Spa , a 55,000-square-foot refuge with unique amenities like a spa-within-a-spa, a European event sauna, a foot spa, décor that changes with the body’s circadian rhythms and one of the largest hotel gyms on the Strip.

Forbes Travel Guide got an exclusive preview of the 44-treatment-room spa inside the $3.7 billion newly built resort. Here are the highlights:

The Inspiration

While the sanctuary shares the same name as Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Lapis The Spa at Fontainebleau in Miami, the only carryover will be the “heritage of great service,” said Jennifer Lynn, director of spa and wellness for Fontainebleau Las Vegas.

The Vegas spa will embrace the name’s inspiration, the lapis lazuli, a stone that encourages strength, power, wisdom, truth and spiritual connection. A rare 150-pound piece of the cobalt-blue crystal will greet you at reception, and the stone will appear throughout the facilities. Plus, the Lissoni & Partners-designed spa will pepper the lapis hue among the dominant desert tones.

Known as the stone of the sky and the heavens, the lapis also inspires the spa’s celestial theme. “The sky and the heavens are very timeless and ageless,” Lynn said. “It allows us to hearken back to these ancient healing traditions, but there’s also something very modern and mysterious about the sky and the heavens as well. And so that’s where we lean more into that modern technology.”

The Spa-Within-A-Spa

Lapis will open Vegas’ first “spa-within-a-spa,” Lynn said. Accommodating parties of up to eight people, its Supernova Suite will have its own amenities, including a vitality pool, a steam shower, lockers, restrooms, a grooming area, three treatment tables and a dining area. A spa butler will greet you at Lapis’ check-in desk, escort you to the suite and oversee your spa day.

“We know very few people come to Vegas by themselves, but a lot of people come in small groups, and so the Supernova Suite is going to be the perfect opportunity for any small group that wanted to spa together,” she said. “It’s a beautiful space.”

forbes travel guide event las vegas

The Facilities

Your spa experience will include Celestial Waters, innovative wellness facilities that you can use before or after a spa treatment (or you can just purchase a four-hour Celestial Waters Passport). Some of the facilities will be familiar to luxury spa devotees, like vitality pools, cold plunges, an herbal inhalation room scented with essential oils and experience showers (called star showers here) with sprays, overhead bucket deluges and simulated gentle rainstorms.

The most unusual offering sits in the center of the spa in the coed bathing area. The Aufguss , or event sauna, is a detoxifying and entertaining communal European ritual that Lynn first brought to the U.S. in 2021 when she led A wana Spa at Resorts World Las Vegas across the street. The 15-minute theatrical experience features a “sauna meister” who performs towel choreography set to music and lights and moves the aromatherapy steam around the sauna. Lapis will add a 120-inch LCD screen as a visual complement to the show.

“I can confidently say that we will certainly be the best and the biggest at the moment with 30-plus seats,” Lynn said about Lapis Spa’s Aufguss, which will be one of the country’s largest, “but you know the reality is it’s all about the programming and how you bring it to life.”

To that end, Lynn went to Europe last year to study under Netherlands native Rob Keijzer, a three-time Aufguss world champion (who will train the staff in Vegas and help develop the experience). They began at the annual Aufguss World Championships in the Netherlands and then made their way to Belgium, Germany and Italy, watching nine sauna shows a day.

If you don’t enjoy sweating in a sweltering sauna, the spa will offer a cutting-edge alternative: an infrared sauna. Infrared light will point at different body parts, warming you from the inside out in a much milder manner.

The spa also will introduce a new spin on halotherapy, which is supposed to help reduce inflammation, clear toxins and improve lung function. Inside the salt-brick-walled chamber, the spa will add a salt mister. “It can definitely assist with the efficacy [of the salt therapy], and the sensation that you feel from this inhalation is a little bit different,” Lynn said. “You can almost taste the salt.”

When you want a reprieve from the saunas or the relentless Nevada sun, you can cool down quickly in a snow shower. The space’s temperature will hover around a frosty 14 degrees Fahrenheit while a machine pumps out fluffy snowflakes. Heated floors will make the falling snow disappear and keep your feet warm.

forbes travel guide event las vegas

Biohacking Décor

According to Lynn, a leading wellness trend is longevity, priming the body to live its longest, healthiest life. One way to do this is through your biological clock, she said. “It is important to honor that natural circadian rhythm as a way of biohacking so that you can get your optimal performance out of your mind and your body.”

The neutral-colored spa incorporates that thinking into its design, with Celestial Waters’ décor changing as the day progresses. During Lo-Tide Mornings, light panel walls will glow calming soft blues, purples and greens. Then during Hi-Tide Afternoons, they will radiate energizing reds, oranges and yellows as visitors prep for a late night out.

The Foot Spa

When your feet get ravaged dancing the night away in heels at a club or strolling the Strip for hours, visit the Reboot Lounge. It will be a drop-in space — you won’t need to make an appointment or even go to the spa locker room to change out of street clothes.

You will sit in one of 12 relaxation loungers, sip a wellness shot and watch the nature scenes projected on three walls while a therapist goes to work on a foot and lower leg treatment to include a Theragun deep-muscle massager.

The spa will reside on the second and third floors of the 67-story tower — the Strip’s tallest occupiable building — in what’s dubbed the wellness corridor. There, you can access the 14,000-square-foot gym — one of the largest on the Strip — outfitted with Peloton and Echo bikes, Woodway treadmills, Hydrow rowers, VersaClimbers, a Jacobs Ladder, a HIIT modular system, and a sled-push and tractor-tire-flip area. Lynn said it also will have equipment that isn’t commonly found in commercial gyms, like a Keiser Triple Trainer, a strength machine that uses compressed air for resistance.

A studio will hold daily yoga, Pilates and stretch and recovery classes. And there will be a stretch and recovery zone with compression boots and other offerings. However, the one feature likely to energize your workout most in the city of excess will be the floor-to-ceiling windows running the length of the fitness center and overlooking Las Vegas Boulevard.

Rates can vary widely by room type and season. "We Paid" is intended to give a general sense of price, but you might find considerably different rates for your trip.

When we book, we aim for the optimum season for the destination, but we avoid holidays and major public events, when prices are highest. We generally book a room at one category up from the most basic.

We take advantage of promotional rates, when possible. That means the rate you see above might have included other benefits, such as spa or meal credits.

Le Cirque Las Vegas

  • Le Cirque Las Vegas is located inside Bellagio, the famed Four-Star Las Vegas hotel that’s right in the heart of Sin City. With its prime location near the center of the Las Vegas Strip, Le Cirque is just minutes from all of the city’s most famous hot spots.
  • Chef Jonathan Doukhan's dishes are served in a fun, colorful atmosphere that manages to balance the playfulness of the circus with the refined style of the cuisine.
  • The Five-Star restaurant features some incredibly opulent décor, such as bright and bold colors, a flowing light shade resembling the big top and playful paintings depicting circus scenes.
  • The classic French menu, expertly selected wine list and first-rate service all contribute to the upscale vibe of the trendy yet formal dining experience at Le Cirque.
  • The potato-crusted Mediterranean sea bass is a signature here, but other standout entrees include the rabbit symphony with a Riesling mustard cream sauce and the Japanese wagyu beef strip loin.
  • The dress code at Le Cirque Las Vegas is business elegant, and it is requested that you do not wear athletic clothes or shorts. We’d recommend staying away from jeans and sandals here, too — you are in Vegas, so why not glam it up a bit?
  • Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made two different ways. The first is to simply call the restaurant directly (866-259-7111); and the second is to use Le Cirque’s online reservation system.
  • Children ages 10 an up are welcome to dine at the Las Vegas restaurant.
