The Accommodation Industry in South Africa
The tourism accommodation industry, one of the sectors hardest hit by lockdown restrictions, is in recovery. Tourist accommodation income increased by more than 60% year on year in 2022. Role players are doing well despite energy costs, power cuts, pressure on the discretionary spending of travellers and occupancy still generally lower than pre-pandemic levels. The United Nations World Tourism Organisation expects the sector to return to pre-crisis levels in 2023.
Key Trends and Challenges
There is increased demand for apartment hotel accommodation and longer stays as people combine working remotely with travel. Last-minute bookings have increased, and hotels are using technology for guests to check in, order food, and control in-room features. The power crisis has a huge impact on the industry, especially smaller establishments, as most do not have their own generators or inverters. Most large hotels have installed generators, but these don’t cover all amenities such as lifts. The high crime rate and the harassment of international tourists is a major threat to tourism.
Student Accommodation
Student accommodation is a growing subsector as the shortage of student accommodation has long been a challenge for the higher education sector. The Department of Higher Education and Training said there is a shortage of over 400,000 beds for students at public tertiary institutions, with rural-based institutions being the most affected. Demand for student accommodation is resulting in increasing private sector participation.
