March Luncheon:
Houston Lodging Market: Have we hit the bottom?
Randy McCaslin, Vice President and Practice Leader
Houston office of PKF Consulting
There are signs in the economic and lodging data that we have hit the bottom and are starting the long slow climb back to the “New Normal”, which will take several years. We are hearing from the hotels that they are ahead of pace so far this year and have more on their books than expected. But only time will tell whether the meetings actually materialize, the attendees actually show up, corporate travel increases and guests are willing to pay better rates. Who knows? Randy’s presentation is chock full of interesting statistics and research related to the lodging industry, especially in Texas and specifically Houston. What can we expect from quarters 2, 3, and 4 in 2010? Randy will help us peer into the crystal ball by way of his experience, background, research studies, and data.
