REGINA --
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact all types of business, local hotels are offering deals to keep customers coming in.
Booking a vacation or even a business trip has been put on the backburner for many people because of the pandemic and provincial restrictions.
“Regina's hotel industry has been simply decimated and we've gone from about a 57 per cent occupancy, to now we're hovering around 20 per cent,” Tracy Fahlman, the President & CEO of the Regina Hotel Association said Monday.
The Hotel Association is projecting an $80 million loss in revenue since last March, for hotels in Regina.
“All three levels of government have been very supportive of the tourism industry. So, we're doing okay, I would say we're treading water, which is not a bad place to be these days, “Ryan Urzada, the Chief Experience Officer of the Atlas Hotel said.
