Thursday, December 11th, 2008

The Novotel Suvarnabhumi Bangkok Airport Hotel expects a tough year in 2009 against the backdrop of falling tourism following the closures of Bangkok’s two airports by anti-government protesters.

Tristan Beau de Lomenie, the Novotel Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel Bangkok‘s general manager, said the week-long closure of Suvarnabhumi Airport sent its occupancy down to only 10%, compared to 80% during normal times.

“Our hotel business will face difficulties next year. Thailand is now facing two crises – the global economic crisis and local political instability. We can’t stay without doing anything, otherwise we will lose,” he said.
