A HOTEL INDUSTRY professionals group is advocating for improved local government health management as bigger hotels run larger overhead with limited operations during the lockdown.
Christine Ann Ibarreta, president of the Hotel Sales and Marketing Association, in phone interviews said that smaller hotels, including some of those run as quarantine facilities for Filipinos returning from abroad, have been able to “survive.”
But bigger hotels have larger expenses, including electricity costs, while occupancy pre-strict lockdown was at around 8%. Staycation hotels are not allowed to operate during the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) imposed on Metro Manila and nearby provinces until April 11.
