The hotels in London accommodate millions of tourists each year but, as per the recent survey conducted by STR Global the number of guests in the airport hotels is falling day by day. Decrease in the number of flights is also one main reason of the decline in the performance rate of the airport hotels. The occupancy rate at the Heathrow and Gatwick airport hotels especially are falling down since past few months. The reason for decline in the occupancy rate is also due to increase in room supply. Gatwick Airport hotel alone saw an addition of about 264 rooms. Around 1294 new rooms were added to the Heathrow Airport hotels after the opening of Terminal 5 at the airport. The occupancy at the Heathrow Airport hotel was down by 4 % till May 2009 whereas fell by 10.30 % in the case of Gatwick Airport hotels. Thus, from the above analysis we can say that the hoteliers at the Gatwick Airport will experience the worst conditions in the upcoming months if the economy is not stable.
