Whether located at a country retreat, fantasy island, or a downtown showplace, the lobbies and bars of hotels are intriguing, multifunctional public meeting spaces. They mirror and reinforce the special character and atmosphere of a hotel and provide for social interaction at levels ranging from the business deal to the romantic tryst. Readers entering the dazzling world of "Hotel Bars and Lobbies" can almost hear the clinking of glasses and subdued business conversations. That's because this "armchair traveler's" fantasy guide to the high life fully captures the splendor as well as the historical and architectural importance of these essential, civilized public spaces.
