Hotels: trading statistics

August 2001

Co-operation between Statistics Embargo: 13:00 (Stats SA), the citizens of the country, the private sector and government institutions is essential Date: 18 October 2001 for a successful statistical system. Without continued co-operation and goodwill, the timely release of relevant and reliable official statistics will not be possible.

Stats SA publishes approximately three hundred different releases each year. It is not economically viable to produce them in more than one of South Africa’s eleven official languages. Since the releases are used extensively, not only locally, but also by international economic and social-scientific communities, Stats SA releases are published in English only.

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 following changes tourism regions 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 8). · 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 9.

New sample According to international best practice and in order to train the relevant respondents in using the new questionnaire, to validate the information received and to 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.

8 P6441

Currently Stats SA is busy re-engineering the register of businesses which serves as the sampling frame, in collaboration with the South African Revenue Service and the Departments of Trade and Industry and Labour. The process will take some time, since there are hundreds of thousands of businesses, many of whom are, in any given period, changing ownership, closing, or being registered. As soon as this improvement in the listing and classification of businesses has been implemented, Stats SA will draw a new sample.

Additional information

Explanatory notes

Introduction 1 This publication contains results of the monthly Survey of Trading Statistics of Hotels conducted in August 2001. The survey is designed to obtain information regarding -

· 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.

Scope of the survey 2 The information is collected from a sample of hotels in South Africa and the results are published according to star grading, the nine provinces and 26 tourism regions as indicated in table 8. Stats SA updates the sample and the population of hotels in South Africa regularly as new hotels become operational or others close down. Hotels operating mainly on a time-share basis are excluded.

Classification 3 This publication provides information of trading statistics of hotels according to star grading, nine provinces and 26 tourism regions. The star grading system according to Satour’s National Grading and Classification Scheme, classifies three-, four- and five-star hotels as having very good to outstanding standards, while one- and two-star hotels are classified as comfortable hotels. Ungraded hotels are not of a lesser standard, they just choose not to participate in the National Grading and Classification Scheme of Satour.

4 The 1993 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (SIC), Fifth Edition, Report No. 09-90-02, was used to classify the statistical units in the survey. The SIC is based on the 1990 International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (ISIC) with suitable adaptations for local conditions. Statistics in this publication are presented at SIC group (4 digit) level.

Statistical unit 5 The statistical unit for the survey is the smallest economic unit (the hotel and its activities) that functions as a separate entity for which comprehensive financial statements are kept.

Survey methodology 6 Information obtained from Satour provides the sampling frame for the selection of the and design sample of hotels for the monthly Survey of Trading Statistics of Hotels. Hotels in the sample are stratified according to star grading within each tourism region. The survey is collected by mail each month from a sample of approximately 430 hotels in 26 tourism regions. All three-, four-, and five-star hotels are completely enumerated. A systematic sample is drawn from ungraded hotels and one- and two-star hotels.

7 The information received from the sample of hotels is weighted according to the original sample design in order to represent the population of hotels. The number of rooms available per hotel is used as a measure of size for the calculation of weights. Weights are calculated for each star grading within each tourism region. Due to the small representation of some of the hotels according to their star grading within certain tourism regions, Stats SA is obliged to group some of the star gradings together to keep information of individual hotels confidential.

Reliability of 8 Data presented in this publication are based on information obtained from a sample of estimates hotels and is, therefore, subject to sampling variability; that is, they may differ from the figures that would have been produced if the data had been obt ained from all hotels in South Africa.

9 Inaccuracies may occur because of imperfections in reporting by enterprises and errors made in collection and processing of the data. Inaccuracies of this kind are referred to as non-sampling error. Every effort is made to reduce non-sampling error to a minimum by careful designing of the questionnaire, pilot studies, editing of data and efficient operating procedures.
