2. Hot Issues

Hot Issues

Engagement is one of the big 'buzz' words in the hospitality world

and could prove to be one of the most important for future success.

In recent years, guests would simply be happy with a great product

and a high level of service and many hospitality business have become very good in these areas.

Successful hospitality businesses will already have an engagement program in place

and will be training colleagues in guest engagement. These businesses will also recognize

engaged colleagues and actively seek feedback from guests. There are a number of key steps

that can be implemented to improve guest engagement.

They are having a solid recruitment strategy, engaging with your employees,

giving your employees something to talk about, rewarding 'engaged' employees,

leading by example, activity seek feedback and focusing your mystery guest

We are on the beat!

3. Atria SUNDRIES

a.Independence Day

Merdeka…..! Shouting at loud and in togetherness

Welcome to the 2013 Independence Day corner from Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang.

Indonesian Independence Day is celebrated every year on the seventeenth of August.

This day, 16 August 2013, is a time to gather with all ranks of employees in Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang

and celebrate pride in our nation's history, people, and landscape. It is the very first time for Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang

to celebrate it by having some ornaments and competitions. Spoiling the eyes' sight to the front porch of the hotel,

we look to the harmony of red and white flag along sides of the hotel. It is also coloring some parts of Pamiluto Restaurants and Truntum Lobby.

It seems so colorful with deep meaning inside. Completing the spirit of Indonesian Independence Day, it is played the National Songs,

such as Indonesia Raya, Berkibarlah Benderaku, Rayuan Pulau Kelapa and Maju Tak Gentar during its days.

The spirit of Independence Day barely exists in Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang.

The spirit of Independence has flown outside to a small-size park across from the hotel.

The view is so colorful in red and white all around combined with the spirit of all Atria Hotels and Conference Magelang Employees.

It is a really high tension of us. Yes….Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang conducts some games,

such as Krupuk Race, Marbles Race, Coin Kecap and Cesar Dance.

We do not figure out on the winner of each game, but these are getting more on how we work with, help, respect each other as team work.

This surely will impact to blow the spirit within Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang. This day is exhausting, but it is the greatest moment we have.

It will continuously be held in Atria Hotel and Conference Magelang every year then. Merdeka…..!!!!

We are on the beat!

13. Cultural Heritage Zone

Borobudur temple, the biggest Buddhist temple and one of the Seven Wonders of the World, is full of story of life,

built with great effort in fifty years. The Borobudur Temple is considered as one of the seven wonder of the world.

This temple is located at Borobudur District, South of Magelang, Central Java.

The expression of experts who had been studying Borobudur Temple varied someway.

Bernet Kempers' expression was: “Borobudur is Borobudur”, meaning that Borobudur Temple is very unique in her own way.

Nieuwenkamp (an artist) imaginated Borobudur as “a big lotus flower bud ready to bloom” which was “floating” on a lake.

Nieuwenkamp's imagination was supported by N. Rangkuti (1987) that from the air, the Borobudur Temple looks floating.

From the geological studies, experts were able to prove that Borobudur area was one time a big lake.

Most of the villages around Borobudur Temple were at the same altitude, 235 meters above the sea-level.

The same altitude included the Pawon and Mendut temples.

Thus the area under 235 meter altitude was below the lake water level.

Borobudur was built by Sanmaratungga in the 8th century, and belongs to Buddha Mahayana.

Borobudur was revealed by Sir Thomas Stanford Raffles in 1814. The temple was found in ruined condition and was buried.

The overall height was 42 meters, but was only 34.5 meters after restoration, and had the dimension of 123 x 123 meters

(15,129 square meters). There were 10 floors. The first floor up to the sixth floor was square form,

the seventh to the tenth floor were round form.Borobudur is facing to the East with a total of 1460 panels (2 meters wide each).

Total size of the temple walls was 2500 square meters, full of relief. The total number of panels with relief was 1212.

According to investigations, the total number of Buddha statue was 504 including the intact and damaged statues.

The temple undergone restoration from 1905 to 1910, and the last restoration was done in 1973 to 1983.(tropod.com)
