5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on b & b's, 14 Nov 2004
By A Customer
You can't buy better than this. It covers everything you need to think about and know when planning to start a b & b. The authors own experience shine's through, in a well written, very useful book. I was able to assess what size business was right, what to look out for when buying, planning of day to day running, marketing and booking keeping. Using the advise in this book I was able to write my own business plan which was praised and accepted by all the financial institiutes I apporach.

4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK, 21 Aug 2008
I was given this book by a friend and find it to be very informative. I'm not sure why one reviewer called it boring. 'How to' books were not meant to be exciting novels, they are meant to show someone how to do something. This book shows step by step the best way to run your own guesthouse and gives the reader the chance to decide if this business is for them. I would recommend it to anyone thinking of purchasing and running their own guesthouse. I would like to thank the author for doing such a great job. He helped me make my decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, 26 May 2009
By D. Tayler (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Buying and Running a Guesthouse or Small Hotel: How to Build a Valuable Business and Enjoy a Great Lifestyle (Paperback)
Covers all aspects in a very practical and helpful way - right down to how to divide your time throughout the day, and how many changes of bedlinen you need. I found it made me really focus on the day to day aspects, as well as giving helpful advice on longer term activities such as marketting. I would certainly recommend this if you are thinking of taking on or starting up a b and b.

1.0 out of 5 stars buying and running a guesthouse or small hotel
The book was ex-library circa 2003 - very out of date with regards to fire regs etc., and a dull read. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Its ok.
This book will help people going into this type of business, however it is a little boring. Good for know-how but poor on keeping the reader reading it. I never read it through. Read more
