[IMG=21537-7413] The beginning of the winter season in the Thai market is market with the shortage of hotel rooms in Pattaya. Firstly, the situation is explained by the increased demand for the Thai resorts among tourists from Korea and Scandinavia. Secondly, travel market experts point out that new hotels are not being built actively in Pattaya. Therefore, the resort was not prepared for the unexpected growth in demand. ‘Last year only three hotels opened in Pattaya that is evidently not enough’, commented Dmitry Chirkanov, Head of Thai and Tunisian Department of Skyway’. In particular, there is a shortage of hotel rooms in hotels popular in the Russian market, for example, Royal Cliff 5*.
Booking of blocks of rooms is not a common practice in Thailand that added to the problem. ‘There was no necessity to book blocks of rooms before. Commitments were common only during before New Year period’, said Tatiana Vand, Director of Vand International Tour.
However, some tour operators guided by the intuition bought blooks of rooms in hotels in Pattaya. Alexander Abramov, Director of Anico-tour, observed that ‘mainly tour operators that expect high volumes book commitments in advance’. In general tour operators that specialize in the Thai market are trying at the moment to find partners in Thailand that have convenient contract terms with local hotels that turns out to be problematic owing tough competition in the Thai market.
