Access HVS will provide interactive discussions on the opportunities and challenges facing

the respective region's hotel industry, while focusing on trends in hotel lending and valuation; up-to-the-moment snapshots of hotel values, transactions, cap rates, and operating trends in each location; and a forecast of overall hotel values through 2017 and beyond.

HVS also completed a unique survey involving hundreds of hotel general managers across

the United States, and across all property types, to get an up-to-the-minute perspective on the direction the industry is heading. The survey reveals how those with 'boots on the ground' are feeling about threats and opportunities in regional hotel markets across the country, including expectations for rate growth and the potential impact of new supply, what they believe are the prospects for each market, and how that stacks up in comparison to the nation as a whole. The results of the HVS GM Survey will be released at the Access HVS events.
