YEREVAN, June 14. / ARKA /. The average monthly hotel occupancy in
Armenia in April-November is 50-70%, which is a good indicator by
international standards, Hakob Hakobian, head of the Association of
Armenian Hotels, said today.
He said the occupancy rate in downtown Yerevan hotels is about 80%,
but the situation is very different in the regions.
He said also Armenia’s hotel capacity is enough for today’s demand,
adding that prices are also available , if compared also with other
regional countries.
Robert Minasian, the chairman of the Union of Tour Operators and
rector of the Russian branch of the International Academy of Tourism ,
singled out inadequate level of services despite the development of
hotel complexes.
“About 90% of hotel employees do not have required training being
seasonal workers which affects the quality of services,” Minasian said.
According to statistical data, Armenia hotels have about 10,000
beds.
