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:
Treasury minister 'hopes' businesses will pass on VAT reductions to customers
Hopes summer VAT cuts will ease cost of living pressures for families and businesses
'The TT is our crown jewel' says caterer
