This wave of entrepreneurial innovation in 2015 also violently impacted the traditional hotel accommodation industry,With the help of capital,OTA is making great progress,Non-standard accommodation booking platforms are springing up,For the majority of consumers,You can have the opportunity to enjoy a rich supply of accommodation products,Booking becomes more convenient and faster。However,As the main force in the accommodation industry, 188bet online casino games seems worried in the face of the rapidly changing market。
The tourism market is heating up,Why the traditional 188bet online casino games is losing money?Surrounded by OTAs and sharing economy short-term rentals,How to transform traditional hotels,In order to gain a firm foothold in the ever-expanding market?
The tourism accommodation market is growing,The 188bet online casino games accommodation industry is losing money
According to iResearch monitoring data,The transaction size of China’s online travel market reached 3077 in 2014.900 million yuan,An increase of 38 compared with 2013.9%;As of Q3 2015, the online travel market has exceeded 120 billion yuan,18% month-on-month increase,45 year-on-year increase.9%。Accommodation only,The online 188bet online casino games market size reached 632 in 2014.500 million yuan,Proportion 20.6%,A year-on-year increase of 28% compared to 2013。
On the one hand, China’s tourism market is booming、The rapid growth of online travel market data,On the one hand, the losses of traditional hotels continue to expand,Star hotels continue to close。According to a set of data from the National Tourism Administration,National star 188bet online casino games operating income in 20142,151.4.5 billion yuan,Loss 59.2.1 billion yuan,Loss range expanded compared to last year。According to Beijing Times report,The total number of star-rated hotels closed nationwide in the first three quarters of 2015 reached nearly 3,000。
Not only the domestic hotel industry is facing difficulties,The development of 188bet online casino games in the international market is also worrying。According to data from international travel search engine company Dohop,19% of customers after successfully booking a hotel,Cancelled before check-in;There are 12.7% of hotel bookings are made immediately before check-in,i.e. “last minute decision”。Analyze the reasons,Because more and more customers stay for a long time (more than four days),Will give up hotels and choose a shared economic living model similar to Airbnb。
There was a profit squeeze from OTA before,There will be alternative competition for non-standard 188bet online casino games later
2015 is the year of OTA melee,Price war、The advertising war continues,At the same time, the online travel landscape has changed a lot in a year,OTA channel integration acceleration,May in the first half of the year,Ctrip acquires eLong,Where will the holding go in the second half of October,Makes Ctrip’s online air ticket and hotel distribution share exceed 50% in one fell swoop,Accounting for half of the country,After integrating Elong and Qunar, Ctrip’s channel control over the domestic hotel accommodation industry has become an absolute advantage。Meanwhile,With the development of Internet + tourism,People are gradually developing the habit of using the Internet to book travel and accommodation products,With strong traffic and customer acquisition capabilities,Online travel platforms represented by OTAs have gained the favor of more and more consumers,188bet online casino games’s dependence on OTAs continues to increase。
In the case of online channel monopoly,The profits of 188bet online casino games are facing the possibility of being severely compressed,Ctrip and other online channels have always had high-pressure policies towards 188bet online casino games, which has undoubtedly forced 188bet online casino games to become self-reliant。
Consumers pursue diversified travel experiences in 2015,Personalized demand is expanding rapidly,As a representative of personalized non-standard accommodation, the supply of inns and B&Bs is also maintaining accelerated growth。This can be reflected from the online inn and B&B booking market data,According to Analysys Think Tank monitoring data,China’s online inn and homestay booking market grew rapidly from the second quarter of 2013 to the second quarter of 2014,In the second quarter of 2014, the revenue of the online inn and homestay booking market reached 1.300 million yuan,Transaction volume 131.300 million yuan,Monthly increase of 333.3%,Much higher than the overall online 188bet online casino games booking market 35.8% year-on-year growth over the same period。
Domestic short-term rental companies frequently obtained financing in 2015,Vacation apartment booking platform Tujia received US0 million in Series D investment in August;Xiaozhu Rental, an online short-term rental booking platform, completed Series C financing of US million in July;Overseas short-term rental booking platform completed RMB 500 million in Series C financing in September;B&B booking platforms have also begun to appear,In addition to the B&B booking section launched by large OTAs on their official websites,There are also many vertical booking platforms such as Vacationer、Zizaike、Youduoduo、Qin’s Inn、Big Fish B&B, etc.。With the power of capital,Non-standard accommodation platform is developing rapidly,Emerging accommodation products are having an alternative impact on hotels,Thus making the profit margins of 188bet online casino games even lower。
International giant Airbnb entered the Chinese 188bet online casino games last year,Seeking a breakthrough,I believe Airbnb will have a new layout in 2016。
It can be seen from this,Profitability and improvement of operating performance in the domestic traditional 188bet online casino games,Both are facing unprecedented challenges。
2016 188bet online casino games Accommodation Industry Trend Analysis
“Non-standard 188bet online casino games” will usher in an outbreak period
Dohop’s data display,In 2015, more and more tourists choose to use the sharing economy type of short-term rental accommodation,And the longer you stay,The higher the likelihood that the customer will choose short-term rental。This mainly comes from the short-term rental 188bet online casino games with lower costs、Better combination of Internet technology,At the same time in terms of customer localization experience and segmented services,Dig deeper than traditional hotels。
Market research company MillwardBrown released a report in 2014,Survey shows that nearly half of business travelers want to explore the local area。"Discover" ranks higher than "Escape" and "Indulgence"。More and more people want to get rid of "friendly、A “safe haven” hotel that is isolated from the outside world,To have a localized experience,For example, tasting local specialties and food,For example, participating in local community activities,Integrate into the local cultural atmosphere。Data display,Whether it is the traditional 188bet online casino games or the short-term rental industry with the latecomer sharing economy model,We are all working hard to enhance customer localization experience and provide segmented services。
The basic product form of domestic tourism has long been "scenery + wine",“Scenery” provides the link of off-location,“Wine” provides a link in local life。But in recent years the inn and B&B、Short-term rental apartment、The rise of long-term rental apartments,Breaking the single pattern of traditional hotels unifying the "wine" field。In an environment where the number of tourists is increasing,Traditional hotels are no longer able to meet the different needs of consumers,The development of “non-standard 188bet online casino games” fills this gap。
November 2015,The State Council issued the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Life Service 188bet online casino games and Promoting the Upgrading of Consumption Structure",Made it clear that we will actively develop inns and B&Bs、Short-term rental apartment、Long-term rental apartment。Issuance of opinions,Let the non-standard accommodation that has been hovering on the edge of the law be corrected。
188bet online casino games is united to keep warm, investment and mergers and acquisitions may increase
Facing OTA、The attack of new forces such as non-standard accommodation,188bet online casino games at home and abroad is also beginning to look for a way to break through。October 2015,Jinjiang Hotels announced the acquisition of Plateno Group for 8.2 billion yuan。In early January 2016, Jinjiang acquired Vienna Group for 1.8 billion。Internationally at the same time,Marriott acquires Starwood for more than 10 billion US dollars,In June 2015, AccorHotels, Europe’s largest hotel group, announced the creation of an independent hotel distribution platform,Start openly confronting OTA,Attract independent hotels that are not affiliated with other brands to join AccorHotels’ distribution platform,The intention is clear,Increase inventory on the platform,Thus attracting more traffic。Notable on August 8, 2015,According to "British Property Weekly" news,Hong Kong CTS Hotels Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Travel Service Group, bid more than 400 million pounds to acquire Kew Green Hotels, a large British hotel group,Become the sole shareholder of KewGreenHotels,Acquired ownership of 44 hotels and management rights of 11 others in the UK,Successfully entered the British hotel market。This is the largest acquisition project by a Chinese company in the British hotel industry to date。
Obviously this is an attempt by large 188bet online casino games groups or alliances to form a group to fight against OTAs。
Optimize the 188bet online casino games booking experience to attract users and give full play to service advantages
This is a relatively mild approach,The 188bet online casino games itself gives full play to its service advantages,Also actively use digital means。For example, showing potential guests the advantages of booking directly (customer service before check-in、Additional services, etc.);Provide digital services,Optimize the online booking experience process to attract users (check-in before check-in、Mobile applications, etc.);Improve the credibility of the 188bet online casino games (make the service more transparent,Improve online reputation), etc.。
Win with segmented 188bet online casino games
As Millennials become the mainstream consumer group,They pursue personalization、Diversified product experience,Compared to "comfort",They care more about whether this place is "interesting"。Therefore, hotels should carry out targeted digital marketing for this type of customers,Create marketing focus around local characteristics,Provide special services。For example,In an ad about breakfast,Focus on local ingredients, their characteristics and corresponding production methods。The 188bet online casino games also holds its own localized activities for marketing,For example, inviting local residents to bring their dogs to the 188bet online casino games for a night of "dog and cocktail fun"。
More and more hotels are beginning to deeply explore customers’ psychological needs for localized life experience and segmented services,Let customers become a part of the local 188bet online casino games community,Fully integrate into local life。
Pay attention to the human and social factors of the accommodation 188bet online casino games
Why non-standard accommodation products such as B&Bs and inns have become so popular?Standard rooms that are different from traditional hotels,Special house types in the short-term rental 188bet online casino games such as courtyard houses、Tree Hole、Woodhouse、Cave dwellings and villas with sea views, etc.,This kind of localized experience is very attractive to the user group who likes to experience "fun" and "different"。These unique accommodation experiences inspire customers to stay again,Thus bringing about secondary consumption、Improved customer stickiness。Not only a localized experience,The landlord can also provide services according to customer needs,Provide more personalized services than hotels。
What’s different from traditional hotels,The short-term rental industry promotes light social interaction between tenants and landlords,Establish a friendship with the host while staying at the hotel,Feel the local cultural sentiments more deeply,Have personalized tour routes,These are indeed customer service segments that traditional hotels cannot complete。“One room,A life”、“A residence,A kind of feeling" slogan,Is the main direction of the short-term rental industry,This is also the warmth trait currently missing in 188bet online casino games。
