Rising Cost of Tourist Accommodation: Discussion
Mr. Tim Fenn:
We appreciate the comments that are being made on short-term and long-term pricing policies. The challenge at the moment is that pricing, whether it is good or bad, has led to Dublin being full. There are no more rooms available, by and large. In June of this current year, we would expect that occupancy will get to something of the order of 92% on average. There are plenty of nights where hotels cannot sell all their rooms and the day they do not sell a room, they cannot sell it the following night. It is absolutely jammed full for this month.
