Thailand Hotel Market - Outlook • The outlook for Thailand’s hotel markets remains positive, due to strong demand fundamentals and minimal supply increases. BANGKOK • Given the global economic downturn, room rate is expected to experience downward pressure in 2002. • Occupancy is expected to improve due to strong tourist arrivals, the perception that Thailand is a relatively safe destination and the limited new supply in the market • Limited new supply - only one new 5 star hotel is anticipated to enter the market in 2002 (the Conrad) PHUKET • Similarly, room rate is expected to experience downward pressure in 2002. • Occupancy is expected to improve as Bali (Phuket’s primary competitor) continues to suffer from the political and social instability in Indonesia • Modest supply increases - only two new 4-5 star hotels opened in 2001 (JW Marriott and Evason Phuket)
