The roster of contributors this year includes current and former CEOs of several leading companies in the hotel industry, in addition to a wide range of other senior analysts, lenders, designers, academics and hotel executives, who explore a wide variety of factors and trends affecting the near-term outlook for the hotel business, as understood from their unique perspective.

Once again this year, the senior analysts of Horwath HTL have prepared a major editorial contribution exclusively for The Hotel Yearbook. In over 50 pages of analysis and expert opinion, consultants from several Horwath offices around the world put together a Regional Outlook for Europe, one for Asia-Pacific, and one for the Americas, looking at the near-term prospects for the hotel industry in some 30 different countries.
