Purpose of the survey The Survey of Trading Statistics of Hotels is a monthly survey covering a sample of private establishments in the formal accommodation industry in South Africa. The results of the survey are used to compile estimates of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and its components, which are used to develop and monitor government policy. These statistics are also used by the private sector in analyses of comparative business and industry performance. The results are published monthly in statistical release P6441 – Hotels: trading statistics. New questionnaire The Survey of Trading Statistics of Hotels was re-engineered in consultation with major stakeholders with the purpose of incorporating users' needs. This resulted in the change of some data items on the old questionnaire.

The new questionnaire only collects the following data items -

room income; income from catering; income from bar-sales; income from off sales; other income (sundries); total number of rooms available; total number of room nights sold; total number of beds available; and total number of bed nights sold.

Changes regarding After consultation with major stakeholders in the hotel industry, the tourism regions following changes regarding tourism regions were made and the first results were published in statistical release P6441 - Hotels: trading statistics, January 2000 on 16 March 2000:

Current tourism regions are grouped according to towns and cities, while the previous tourism regions were grouped according to magisterial districts (cf. table 7). Hotels in Sandton which were previously included in the Rest of Gauteng tourism region, are now included in Johannesburg tourism region. Jacaranda tourism region is called Pretoria tourism region. The Lowveld and Escarpment tourism region and the Rest of Mpumalanga tourism region have been combined and is now called Mpumalanga tourism region. The Rest of Gauteng tourism region and the Johannesburg tourism region were combined for comparison purposes in table B (cf. page 2). As a result of this, Stats SA now reports on 25 tourism regions in table B instead of 26 tourism regions. For more information, see table C, page 6.

New sample According to international best practice and in order to train the relevant respondents in using the new questionnaire, validate the information received and avoid a break in the time series published in this statistical release, Stats SA decided to introduce the new questionnaire as the first step in the re-engineering process. Stats SA will in due course, as the second step, introduce a new sample.
