The Chinese capital plans to increase the number of star-grade hotels to meet
the needs of the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, mainly through upgrading existing
economy-class hotels.
"We welcome big-name international hotel management firms to join this
process through multiple channels, including franchise, joint-stock management
and financing," said Yu Debin, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Tourist
Bureau to Beijing Morning Post.
According to the bureau, Beijing has 601 star-level hotels at the end of
September. The city is aiming for 800, the amount required by the 2008 Summer
Olympic Games.
The bureau predicted Beijing would host 600,000 visitors during the
forthcoming Olympic Games.
