The hotel industry is a very hard industry to enter into, due to one of the biggest obstacles, which is brand recognition. Right now there are a few large hotel chains that make a large footprint in the market. It is hard for a new entrant to come into the industry and compete with these large hotel chains without bringing something new to the table. Many large chains in the industry dominate the industry due to economies of scale due to franchising.

Hilton Hotels is one of the biggest players in the US lodging industry. It contributes to about 9% of the total rooms in US lodging market. It has presence in over 78 countries with more than 2500 hotels.

In this section we look at who are our competitors in the same industry and how can we gain the large portion of the market share and profits. However, if the level of competition becomes too high it can ultimately lead to a decrease in profits. There has been an increase in the amount of competitors on the tourism industry over the last 10 years, with the introduction of online sales and new airlines. For the tourism industry the level of competition can be quite high as

Within the luxury tier, many of the players do not actually own the hotels themselves, but instead manage the operation of the business, similar to that of FSH. In the luxury segment, competition for acquiring new management agreements becomes very high as hotel owners make their choices based on the quality and value of a company's management service and most importantly, its brand name. Moreover, guests who choose to stay in luxury hotels are commonly not very price sensitive, and thus it is essential that a hotel distinguish itself amongst its competition by providing value added services as well as maintaining an untarnished, reputable brand name and image.

The majority of the five-star hotels are controlled by foreign hotel management group while the one, two, three, and four-star hotels are mostly controlled domestically without any strong chain brand.

This shows that the majority of the profit share is earned by five-star hotels. Besides the starred hotel, there are 95000 individual hotels in China market, which occupies 27% of the market share; and economy hotel for around 7000, occupies 1.9% of the market share; social inn, hostel for about 234,000, which occupies 67% of the market share. In China, the main body market is filled with non-brand individual hotels, social inn, and hostels, but their competitive power and profitability indexes are relatively weak. Economy hotels, on the other hand, in terms of economic perspective, are lying in the ascendant mode with lots of domestic brands appearing having strong competitive power and profitability indexes.

Having just analyzed the general environment surrounding the upscale and luxury hotel industry, the next step in determining whether such an industry is attractive or not is to conduct an in depth external analysis of the threats and opportunities facing the industry. Thanks to the help of Michael Porter and his Five Forces Model, this analysis is not nearly as difficult or as time consuming as it may seem. According to Porter, there are five forces which determine the competitive intensity and therefore attractiveness of a market. These forces include the threat of entry, the threat of rivalry, the threat of substitutes, the threat of buyers,

Grand Hyatt Melbourne has completed its four year refurbishment project.

The hotels that we are writing about are The Ritz Carlton Singapore, the Intercontinental Singapore Hotel and the Marriott Singapore. Our main hotel will be the Ritz Carlton Singapore. We chose the hotels as they pose as prominent hotels in Singapore and they are also known overseas as well. Although they are quite similar, there are also several differences that can be seen as well. They are also very distinct in branding, and value their brands very highly. All three hotels boast amenities and services that will cater to a majority of their customers. As well as an experience that they believe we will value as customers.
