Originally published in HM Magazine October 2006


Welf J Ebeling

Today’s state-of-the-art is tomorrow’s ho-hum. Staying ahead of the consumer, much less the industry, is the challenge for today’s purveyors of luxury. HM News Editor, Roderick Eime meets an expert on luxury, Welf J Ebeling, Executive Vice President and COO of The Leading Hotels of the World (LHW) for his take on the world of extraordinary hospitality.

 

Hand’s up everyone who remembers the classic Monty Python sketch “Luxury”. Four plump, middle-aged, braggart Yorkshiremen all recount their rise to success by out-doing each other’s hardships. “A Cardboard box?! That were luxury, sixteen of us lived in a hole in t’ road.”
