What started in March 2006 with 880 participants has attracted 12,600 ITB visitors in total until last year. As organizer of this conference, I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all the panelists of the years past! Without the know- how of these hoteliers, tourist experts and specialists – also from other sectors – the Hospitality Day wouldn't have become a magnet at the ITB congress. On pages 14-15 we look back with a few pictures ... Over and over again, we have discussed challenges, in step with practice, controversially, objec- tively and passionately. And, of course, as internationally as possible to do justice to ITB's reputation as the largest tourism trade fair in the world. On this big birthday, the ITB Hospitality Day will deal with the truly big trends and let minds wander ... What changes will have which consequences, and how should you position yourself in the future? The hotel business has become extremely fragile over the past few years. The keywords of the 2015 "ITB Hospitality Day" are: cyber attacks, sharing eco- nomy, budget and luxury & lifestyle, digitization vs. values, and online distribution. And there is yet another reason to celebrate: this year is hospitalityInside. com's 10th anniversary. In 2005, we considered ITB a perfect occa- sion to start an ad-free German/English hotel magazine – solely online! Ten years ago, this was rather bold, but this multiple somer- sault has paid off: hospitalityInside has readers in more than 20 countries and is considered – small but powerful – one of the 3 opinion leaders among international hotel trade media. You can find our retrospect on pages 6-7. Let's have a toast; pay us a visit at the "World of Hospitality" in hall 9, booth 109! For the fourth time, we are present at ITB with a joint booth and we're happy that we have managed to assem- ble a circle of both well-known and competent co-exhibitors once again this year (see pages 8-11). Since 2011, this ITB special issue has presented insights into the trade fair, the ITB Hospitality Day as well as the joint booth. In addition, you can find articles from the hospitalityInside.com online magazine that are normally reserved for our subscribers (starting on page 20). This special issue is also available online in both German and English at www.hospitalityinside.com. I wish you all a successful ITB 2015!

  • What Is Happening in the European Hotel Sector?
    What is happening in the European hotel sector? Received: 5 October 2004 Ruth Waite is a research analyst with the London office of HVS International, a leading global firm of hotel real estate advisers and valuers. Russell Kett is Managing Director of the London office of HVS International, which covers Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and each year advises on some 250–300 individual hotels or developments within the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. Abstract The authors are delighted to introduce a series of quarterly papers which aim to observe the latest trends in the key industry sectors. Subjects to be covered in forthcoming issues will be boutique/lifestyle hotels, budget hotels, luxury hotels, mid-market hotels, serviced apartments and timeshare/resort developments. This first paper in the series presents a snapshot of current trends in the market generally concerning values, acquisitions and disposals, funding and development, and includes highlights of recent events from the year so far. Keywords: European RevPAR, hotel values, hotel investment activity, hotel funding trends INTRODUCTION Since the beginning of 2004, the long awaited revenue per available room (RevPAR) growth in Europe has been a gradual and muted affair, but industry experts are at last reporting with more optimism on the progress being made. In the current climate of volume-led recovery, where additional variable costs are associated with servicing more rooms and guests, it is only those hotel markets that are able to increase average rates as well as occupancy that are enjoying marked improvements in revenues. According to Deloitte,1 the majority of countries in Europe have experienced an improvement in occupancy during recent months.
