What is the single best/defining thing about the Trump Hotel Collection?
The defining quality of Trump Hotel Collection is our commitment to customizing the guest experience, which is unrivalled in the market today. We put a huge emphasis on personalized, super luxury service at all levels of the hotel experience. Whether it's the doorman at Trump Central Park welcoming you back by your first name or our Trump Attaché remembering that a guest likes The New York Times delivered every morning, we strive to make everyone feel like a VIP while staying with us.
The Trump name stands for the best. Consumers all around the world know what they're getting when they buy something Trump, no matter what it is. We pay incredible attention to quality and detail to ensure our brand is second to none. It is also important that there are real people behind the brand. My family is deeply involved in everything we do, and people understand our commitment and dedication to upholding the Trump brand.

My father has taught my brothers and me that the luxury travel industry weighs heavily on guest loyalty, and the way to guest loyalty is to never compromise on quality. He also taught us to pay close attention to the details that define our brand and set our hotels apart from all others.

Social Media is such a valuable tool not only for marketing and building brand awareness, but it allows us to make a personal connection with our current and future guests.
A great hotel should have outstanding personalized service, an excellent on-site restaurant, and a distinctive design that gives guests a sense of place. Of course, location is also key.

Chicago, Prague, Istanbul and Paris are just a few of my favorites.
I love Hangar-7 in Salzburg, Austria. It's like dining in a private airport hangar with the most delicious food. The atmosphere is unique, creative and forward thinking and the food compliments the space perfectly.
I never travel without a picture of my daughter, my iPhone and Annulio flats from my footwear collection that I can change into or throw in my bag during trips.
I will never forget the first time I went to Paris. Everything came to life in the most exquisite way. Strolling the Rue St. Honoree, eyeing all of the incredible shops and just taking in the beautiful architecture. Every time I visit I see something new!
A laptop. When I'm traveling it's so important for me to stay connected to my businesses and to my family, and it's great to have all the entertainment aspects as well for those very long flights. It's the perfect traveling companion- it has everything I need and it fits in my Crystal Ivanka Trump Tote bag.
Great company.
