Island's rivals have better facilities, says hotel consultant
The Isle of Man needs to 'get ahead of the competition' by investing in improved tourist accommodation.
A hotel consultant working with the Department for Enterprise says the Island's rivals, like Jersey and Guernsey, have a greater luxury accommodation offering.
Andrew Keeling of Hotel Solutions believes the government should invest in eco-friendly tourism and capitalise on the Biosphere status.
He told a Tynwald committee the Island is playing catch up:
Post Office reports stronger profits but warns of major changes
Food wholesaler to close after 55 years
Manx Radio reports financial loss amidst ‘continued market uncertainty’
Steam Packet reports higher revenue and busiest passenger year since 2007, despite dip in profit
