Hotel checkout time? Sector's salad days may soon be over soon
Article Abstract:
Trading in Hong Kong's hotel stocks is expected to diminish as capacity expansion by many hotels meets decreasing visitor growth. Traders caution investors against hotels whose revenue base is dependent on Hong Kong hotel locations. Hong Kong's hotel industry suffered a capacity shortage with the demolition of the Hilton, Lee Gardens Hotel and the Victoria Hotel, with capacity decreasing by 3% between 1993 to 1995. The capacity is expected to reach 45,644 rooms by the year 2000, a 38% capacity increase.

Other companies are trying to follow the Amanresort formula by offering similar facilities at lower prices.
