The European hotel market has room to continue growing through 2000, with the brand market still a long way below levels in the US.

Article Abstract:
The would-be resort town of Sanya on China's Hainan Island still hopes to attract international high-rollers, but Beijing's continued disapproval of gambling is keeping it in the doldrums.
