In an effort to lure in more clients, hotels are putting ping pong tables in their bars and lobbies.
On a recent visit to the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles, Hospitality-On noted that the ping-pong tables were located in the middle of the bar near the lobby. "We're paid to play here," said a woman who identified herself as a former ping pong champion, confirming that the financial investment went above and beyond the mere purchase of rackets and balls.A second West Hollywood Hotel, the Chateau Marmont, also has ping pong tables, suggesting that this might be the beginning of a marketing trend.A second West Hollywood Hotel, the Chateau Marmont, also has ping pong tables, suggesting that this might be the beginning of a marketing trend.
