The Qatar hotel management service industry is expected to witness strong growth during the forecast period, owing to various factors such as increase in tourist arrivals, rise in investments in infrastructure and connectivity, growth in government attention toward diversifying economy, and a rise in the number of hotels across Qatar. According to the Planning and Statistics Authority (PSA), the hospitality industry in Qatar witnessed 55% occupancy rate in June 2023. Moreover, the government’s aim to attract tourists and increase tourist arrivals as a part of their Qatar National Tourism Sector Strategy 2030 is expected to positively impact the Qatar hotel management service market growth in the near future. As per the Qatar National Tourism Sector Strategy, Qatar is targeting to attract around 7 million travelers per year by 2030. Further, the rising focus of the government to improve transportation infrastructure is also contributing to the market growth. The Hamad International Airport was opened in 2014 and increased Qatar’s airport capacity to 50 million passengers per year when fully operational, which was only 9 million passengers earlier. Qatar is witnessing a strong and steady growth in its hospitality sector since the past three years. According to the Planning and Statistics Authority (PSA), revenue from the hotel and hotel apartment for one available room in deluxe and standard hotel apartment was around $52 and $46 respectively, in June 2023. The one and two-star hotels in Qatar witnessed a massive occupancy rate of 89% in June 2023, the three and four-star hotels recorded 75% and 54% occupancy rate, respectively. An overall occupancy rate of 55% was recorded in the Qatar hospitality industry in June 2023. A significant growth in the number of tourists/travelers has led to higher occupancy rates and a rapid growth in revenue of the hospitality industry in Qatar in 2023. Therefore, this growth is expected to continue in the forthcoming years, which is projected to attract more investments toward the hospitality sector in Qatar and subsequently drive the demand for the hotel management service significantly during the forecast period.
Qatar is seeing a sharp increase in the popularity of bleisure travel. Middle Eastern nations like Qatar are increasingly gaining popularity among tourists and business travelers globally. The increase in popularity of remote work in large corporations, the expansion of the MICE sector, and the rise in business travel around the Middle East are expected to drive the Qatar hotel management service demand. Slowly, both locals and visitors are using hospitality spaces as hotspots for remote work. The hotel business is anticipated to have tremendous potential to take advantage of this trend and improve its service offerings in order to match the demand from leisure travelers.
Tourism plays an important role in Qatar’s overall economy. The Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA) has announced to implement the Qatar National Tourism Sector Strategy 2030 to boost its tourism industry and is targeting to attract around 7 million travelers per year by 2030. Qatar is seeking to reduce their reliance on the energy sector by diversifying its economy. As per the Qatar National Tourism Sector Strategy 2030, Qatar has outlined an investment of $40 to $45 billion through public and private capital to achieve its target. Moreover, the improvements in connectivity and infrastructure are expected to boost tourism, thereby fueling the growth of the hospitality industry and hotel management service market. The Hamad International Airport was opened in 2014 and increased Qatar’s airport capacity to 50 million passengers per year when fully operational, which was only 9 million passengers earlier. The government’s initiatives to boost tourism in Qatar are expected to foster the growth of the hotel management service market in the forthcoming years.
Future significant events such as the World Aquatics Championships, the Summer Olympics, the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023, the GKA World Tour Event FKB, and the Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Qatar MotoGP are expected to be held in Qatar. These big events are anticipated to draw a large number of people to Qatar because they are well-known across the globe. This is one of the key elements that will present an opportunity for the expansion of Qatar's hotel management services sector. Thus, the government's increased emphasis on organizing and hosting significant international events is anticipated to stimulate market growth.
The primary focus of every business is to achieve profit maximization at minimum cost. High investment often generates high revenue. However, economic uncertainty along with recession has degraded the consumption rate of the market, thereby declining the sales significantly. This has changed the pattern of investments for several companies, as they have started adopting cost-cutting strategies. However, business related travel is an expensive affair, as it involves transportation such as flights & taxi, food & accommodation of the traveler, and the expense is significantly higher if it is an international trip.
Advancement such as online banking, phone calls, emails, and video conferences have made communication and transactions significantly cost-effective and easy in real time. Moreover, the introduction of real-time communication is encouraging companies to adopt several communication technologies such as video conferencing through online platforms such as Skype, FaceTime, Google Meet, and Zoom. Low cost and high effectiveness of such technology is projected to result in a decline in the demand for business travel and other similar types of tourism, which is anticipated to hamper the growth of the Qatar hotel management service market in the upcoming years.
Customers in the hospitality industry seek personalized interactions. Most hotel businesses are focused on personalizing the services at the segment level while the customers' expectations have increased far beyond personalization and shifted towards hyper-personalization. The hospitality industry is now adopting digital technology platforms such as customer relationship management (CRM) and customer experience management (CEM) platforms that use big data to create hyper-personalized or highly customized one-to-one interactions between the host and the guest at scale. The effective management of customer relationships and customer experiences is gaining more importance, which is anticipated to offer a lucrative growth opportunity for the hotel management service market players in the future. Hence, with the adoption of new technology to offer hyper-personalization services to customers, the demand for hotel management services is expected to witness growth in Qatar.
