The hotel apartment concept
Apartment hotels combine a hotel with self-catering
residential apartments. They are one of the fastest-growing
sectors in hotel accommodation in the world, comprising
about 9% of hotel accommodation worldwide, but only
about 2% in South Africa, with The Capital Hotel Group
commanding about 75% of the local industry.
The Capital Hotel Group MD Marc Wachsberger says his
is currently the fastest-growing hotel chain in South Africa,
in ‘direct response to ever-increasing demand for the
apartment-hotel style accommodation.’
The Capital hotels boast an average occupancy rate of
80%, which is well above the 55% average occupancy rate
for local hotels, he says.
