Inventory of the hotel industry: the latest update on the effect of the second Covid-19 wave on the sector

The latest health measures in France and worldwide have certainly had a smaller impact impact on the hotel industry in France than the the first lockdown but have nevertheless led to the closure of 30% of hotels. The budget and economic ranges showed once again a great resilience with occupancy rates above 40% in regions and the potential arrival of a vaccine are very positive signs. This strengthens EXTENDAM investment strategy. The company will indeed still and always invest in a market which will be pulled by its fundamentals in the very near future.
