anthropometrics The front desk should be easily accessible from and to the main hotel entrance. “Easily accessible” strongly implies clear visibility. Elevators servicing the hotel guest rooms should be readily visible from the front desk. This is not always feasible in extremely large hotels. The front desk should be designed in such a way as to take into consideration the various users it will accommodate. Special attentions should be given to the fact that hotel guests may be physically challenged or chair bound. The overall height, writing surfaces, and overhangs should be designed to accommodate a hotel guest seating in a wheelchair. The basic front desk design should avoid, wherever possible, visual obstructions that block sight lines or create blind spots. Accordingly, columns and high walls should be avoided.
