luxury - being able to order to a guest only seating area

not everyone does lounge food. it would be nice if clubs with limited rooms like FS maui and buenos aires were exceptions, but not sure. personally, im a fan of small luxury all-inclusive.


a smaller hotel with guest only seating areas is going to be more private than a fee-based club in a possibly large hotel. note im using "smaller" to emphasize the comparison, NOT only referring to tiny hotels where one could argue from the standpoint of less anonymity.

but then i recognize im not addressing F&B (arguable to a certain degree) because while luxury is order anything served anywhere, thats not really that standard.
It's hard to discuss this in light that you've now moved into the fictional or, well, theoretical. In any case, as mentioned above, one's own utility realized from these enhancements is indeed a highly subjective matter...yet they are enhancements nonetheless and they are material.
