Accor Survey: Singapore and Hong Kong Are the Top 2 Asia Pacific Business Destinations






Singapore 2011 Top business travel destination

According to the Asia-Pacific Business Traveller Survey conducted by Accor and Cimigo, Singapore and Hong Kong are the top two business destinations in the region. This was the result gathered from 10,437 respondents from the following countries: China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, India, Australia, and New Zealand.

 Accor-Asia Pacific representative Evan Lewis said that their survey results had business travellers saying that they expect Singapore will remain as the top travel destination for business throughout Q2 2011. This only further cements Singapore's position as the number 1 business hub for the whole Asia Pacific region.

Lewis also shared that the survey showed Hong Kong as a top business destination because it serves as the entry point to China. Singapore's popularity, on the other hand, is attributed to its advantage and usage as the gateway to the rest of South East Asia.

Accors survey also covered business travellers' budget allocation for accommodation, preferred booking methods for hotel accommodation, and average number of business trips taken by business travellers from January to June of 2011.
