| Among the early misfires by Hooters' management was not quickly turning to the Internet to sell a large number of discounted rooms. Several months ago, Hooter s began selling rooms online more aggressively, which depressed room rates but boosted occupancy to 81 percent.
The Aladdin, by comparison, is benefiting from the Starwood room reservation and rewards network. The hotel database of millions has helped boost occupancy into the high 90s, spokeswoman Amy Sadowsky said. Analysts also griped that the Hooters slots were only winning an average of $67 per machine - far short of the $100 or more per day won by the typical Las Vegas slot machine. Hessling said enough people were visiting Hooters - just not enough older, middle-aged couples who are the backbone of the casino business. "Hooters attracts 65 (million) to 70 million people to its restaurants every year and is a successful American icon," Hessling said. "We've always been full with younger people. What we weren't doing is attracting the typical Las Vegas visitor." So while the hotel was filling on weekends with younger, impulse visitors, there weren't enough older customers to fill the property midweek, said analyst Pedreira. wyndham hotel nassau bahamas bay!!!  |
