Working in a hotel can be a good career for a person. It depends on the patient and the work done behind this particular career. Working in a big hotel and working in a small hotel has certain differences. First of all, the wages paid. I believe that working in a big hotel pays a lot more than working in small hotels as well as working in a big hotel provides better opportunities and more accommodations compared to smaller hotels. Working in smaller hotels also has many advantages. For example, you can interact with local people more and you get to know their tastes. Usually people get the opportunity to work in a bigger hotel from working in a smaller hotel first. I think both are important. I think many skills are needed for being a good hotel manager. One of the most important skills is the ability to manage things. The second thing is leadership.
