London has huge losses because of the
Olympics
British government plans to increase profits during the Olympic Games in London, seems to be doomed to failure. Arrived in the city, tourists and sports fans are a little beyond the Olympic Park and do not spend so much money on other entertainment, as we would like to authorities.
At the Olympic Games came to more than 100,000 foreign visitors, according to Financial Times. On the one hand, a lot. In any case, significantly more than the last Olympics. But on the other hand, in ordinary times, ordinary, London is visited by 300,000 tourists who go to theaters, museums and willingly parted with their money.
The greatest losses are just the museums and theaters. The British Association's leading tourist attractions reported a profit drop by 30-35%. The members of the society are not going to give up and struggling to attract visitors, such as the rare times the lack of queues.
The owners of London's hotels also have different ways to attract guests. Many of them were forced to cut prices. Managing Director of Tourism Golden Tours Palau, Nick believes that the Olympics this summer has completely destroyed their business. "Earlier hotels inflated prices, and the largest tour operators actually stopped the sale in May. Our profit for this period decreased by 20%," - said Palau.
Here in London there is one area where the profits of owners of various establishments grow. And this is the eastern part of the city, where is the Olympic Park.
