Says vice president Stephen Galbreath, in the Dallas ofﬁce, “I think China’s domestic and international tourism industry will continue to expand into less well-known cities over the next few years, only increasing the need for exceptional hotels.”

Homeward Bound
While international operators are primarily focusing on the upper end of the supply spectrum, local brands are cashing in on the domestic travel market. According to the National China Tourism Administration, domestic tourism accounted for 94 percent of total hotel stays in 2010, with 47 percent of these for leisure and 24 percent for MICE or business purposes. “We’ve found that the country’s burgeoning middle class and growing number of business travelers are looking for a more luxurious experience than has been seen in the past, and [on the opposite end] the demand for very high-end luxury has exploded,” observes Galbreath. “While it’s occasionally a challenging place to work, this rush of development means that architects have the continuing opportunity to design incredible, iconic structures, [keeping] in mind that each city has its own unique culture and aesthetic.” Adeline Phua with HVS’ Shanghai ofﬁce adds, “The swift reforminitiated expansion of China’s economy has stimulated ever-growing volumes of domestic travel abroad. This has, over time, caused China’s hotel industry to evolve from niche-market oriented to mass-market driven. A new type of traveler seeking clean and tidy rooms, efﬁcient service, safety, and value for money has emerged.” “The central government will continue to encourage economic development in the secondary and tertiary markets in the interior of the country as part of its policy to move development away from the coasts to ensure economic stability,” notes Michael Linczyc, principal and corporate director of development with Wilson Associates, which has worked on projects such as the Hilton Beijing Wangfujing. Domestic brands including Jinjiang Inns, Home Inns, and Motel 168 have enjoyed 52, 84, and 99 percent growth between 2004 and 2008 respectively. International budget brands such as Super 8 and Ibis are also mushrooming across the country, offering standardized aesthetics
