Here is a great post from Xhotels on what it mean to be a disruptive hotel :
Hotels need to be more Disruptive.
It once again reminded me of the classic marketing model that so clearly shows what this is all about that oh’ so tricky move from new to perennial with out falling into the trap of becoming stereotype.

This is also a theme that I have developed extensively in my book: Best! – no need to be cheap if... The overall idea his is to use the frame work of the Service Profit Chain to understand build that uniqueness over time.
