10% increase in food ingredients Air purifiers installed on each floor Industry: Can only be passed on to residents

According to industry sources, the main reason for the soaring hotel prices is the increase in operating costs. Since the government requires the installation of air purifiers in each room and floor, the number of reception staff must also be increased. At the same time, hotels must provide customers with 3 meals of food. However, in recent years, food The price has risen sharply, and the expenditure on ingredients alone has also increased by more than 10%, so the hotel can only pass the cost on to the accommodation fee.

The real estate speculation is only an individual event. The government invites more hotels to participate in order to reduce prices.

The government introduced new measures last night to prevent speculation in quarantined hotel rooms.

The source revealed that the situation of speculation does exist, but the actual operation is difficult and it is only a sporadic individual incident.

The person pointed out that in the past, it was difficult to find a room in a hotel during the summer vacation. Now it has become a problem of strong social demand, which is closely related to the restart of the economy in the future. It is suggested that the government should add more quarantine hotels to increase the room supply.
