How to explain the price increase of hotels during holidays?

In recent years, "the price will increase on holidays" has become a reserved program of many hotels. According to reports, in the golden week of 20 191month before the outbreak, hotels all over the country generally raised their prices at least twice, with the highest price increase of 14 times.

The hotel service industry implements market-regulated prices, and operators have the right to set their own prices. From an economic point of view, commodity prices depend not only on cost factors, but also on the relationship between supply and demand. Supply exceeds demand and prices fall. Demand exceeds supply and prices rise. During the holidays, citizens get together to travel, popular cities and scenic hotels are full, and it is hard to find a room, which undoubtedly gives operators the confidence to raise prices.

In this regard, while expressing understanding, some consumers also questioned: Some hotels often raise prices several times or ten times. Is it too "willful"? Some hotels blindly follow the trend of price increases, and the facilities, services and prices are completely mismatched. It is obviously an ordinary express hotel, but it catches up with the price of a five-star hotel, giving people a feeling of "grabbing the festival".

From the point of view of fair trade, the price of holiday hotels can go up, but it should be within a reasonable range and cannot be overcharged. Otherwise, it will not only directly increase the economic burden of tourists, but also easily damage the external image of the city, which is not conducive to the long-term development of local tourism. In this regard, the relevant departments should pay attention to it, comprehensively implement policies, and effectively solve it.
