That's 20% of the total hotels in the city.

The average daily rate for a hotel stay in New York City increased to $301.61 in 2023, up 8.5 percent from $277.92 in 2022, according to CoStar, a leading provider of commercial real estate data and analysis. During the first three months of 2024, when prices traditionally dip, the average stay was still 6.7 percent higher than during the same time period last year: $230.79 a night, up from $216.38 in 2023.

The use of city hotels for migrants represents a loss of 16,532 hotel rooms, leaving 121,677 hotel rooms for travelers, according to data compiled by CoStar, a leading provider of commercial real estate data and analysis.

Rookie numbers, push towards 40%

I'm so very glad the docs decided to up Abbott's testosterone dosage. It's been a great couple of years.

Onward.

That's okay. No one wants to visit there anyway.

Anyone that visits NYC for vacation and supports that hell hole is complicit with the woke folk.

Gee, those don't look like Mexicans or Guatamalans

All i see is they need more asylum seekers dropped off there

Time for Abbott and DeSantis to send more busses.

As I said some time ago…….

• Rent rooms to the gub'ment for FULL price (no Travelocity, Hotels.com, etc…..rates)
• Rooms and hotel gets trashed
• Insurance pays for rebuild
• Kickbacks to and from NYC cronies
• $PRO-FITTTTTTTTTTTT!$

You're not wrong.

It's likely that most of these hotels were on the hook for the standard 5-10 year brand refresh and were suffering financially from the whole COVID shutdown mess before the migrants started arriving.

Hotels are mostly franchise owned and managed by a property management company. Their flags (Holiday Inn, Aloft, Courtyard, etc) require regular refresh of FF&E, carpet, lighting, common areas, restaurants, etc. to maintain the franchise flag. That interior upgrade can be very expensive. If you were an owner of multiple hotels, you are looking at multi-million dollar outlays to get your hotels up to brand standard.

Hotels are a big business in NYC. Paying a kickback or two from the hotel industry lobby to a group of politicians to get the taxpayer to foot the bill for the renovations is a nice ROI.

After the election, the migrants will get kicked to the curb. The hotels will get renovated and the city will have thousands of nice clean rooms for tourists to come back to NYC......

Socialism playing out in real life. Privatize the profits, socialize the losses.

If I'm the insurance company, I refuse to renew those. It's a guaranteed loss.

But I'm sure in that scenario, the agency paying for the migrants rent would simply write into the contract that they'll pay for refurbishment.

What's another 10-20 billion?

Yep, the insurance companies are not paying for the destruction us taxpayers will. Next year the hotel owners will all have brand new shiny remodeled hotels paid for by Brandon and Company. In the meantime, every room is booked at a premium rate for almost a year. PROFIT $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $

Exactly what Cali has done with the illegals and hotels for the last couple of years. And the Pols have been lining their pockets with "Contributions" from the hotel owners.

I don't care, do you.

What a great use of our money

If I'm the insurance company, I refuse to pay on any claims related to housing illegals. I'd hope they included something in the contract where the expectation of an occupant is a paying customer, as in someone with something to lose if they damage the property.

So, they identify as tourists?
