Bookings At Trump Hotels Are Down
June 15, 2016 in Daily Bulletin
Priceonomics wrote about the effect that Trump’s rise has had on bookings at Trump’s hotels:
- According to one travel website bookings at Trump hotels have decreased by 59% year over year.
- In cities such as New York and Las Vegas bookings have decreased by over 70%.
- Even in Atlantic City – long Trump’s stronghold – bookings are down by 17%.
- Of course, if Trump goes onto win the Presidency, his hotels will probably do well in the long run since there’d be some novelty to staying at a hotel branded with an American President’s name.
- If he should lose though it’s possible the damage to his brand will be permanent.
