Macau's Golden Week Shatters Expectations with Surging Visitation Numbers
Skift Take
- Macau's Golden Week visitation exceeded expectations, with 769,000 people visiting in the first six days.
- RKM Enterprises opened Ramada by Wyndham Goa in North Goa with various amenities.
- Radisson Hotels Group plans to introduce its top luxury "Radisson Collection" in India and expand the Radisson RED brand in the country.
Macau's first six days of Golden Week have resulted in visitation of 769,000 people, or 128,167 per day. That is well above the upwardly revised 100,000 a day projection from the Macao Government Tourism Office. With the eight-day holiday week wrapping up this weekend and visitation typically higher on weekends, there is a good chance the final results will be substantially higher than the MGTO predictions. Local tourism authorities are now suggesting a 150,000 a day average which would get them within 15% of the 2019 Golden Week holiday, although that was seven days.
RKM Enterprises of Delhi in India announced the opening of Ramada by Wyndham Goa, in partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. Ramada by Wyndham Goa Arpora, located in the prime area of Arpora – North Goa, has 65 rooms, a lobby lounge, all day restaurant and bar, a wellness area, outdoor swimming pool as well as three event spaces. The hotel is said to offer guests easy access to the Baga and Calangut
