Introduction

Australian hotel transaction activity slowed in FYE2018 with volumes easing to $1.338 billion, after a record three years, with a reduction in big-ticket sales. Deal flow increased however with 35 transactions (above $10 million) concluding throughout the year. This compares to 30 transactions in FYE2017.

Fewer big-ticket sales also saw a shift in the capital base with locally domiciled funds stepping to the fore. Australian investors accounted for 63.7 per cent of asset trades in FYE2018, considerably higher than the 16.5 per cent recorded in FYE2017. Investors from Mainland China fell behind the rest of Asia as one of the

more dominant sources of inbound capital, accounting for only 1 per cent of transactions over the year, as capital restrictions continued to bite. Continuing the trend of FYE2017, Middle Eastern investors remained active, as well as groups from Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore and the United States.

Queensland was one of the more active hotel investment markets as investors made counter cyclical plays, ahead of improving fundamentals in Brisbane and as the key leisure markets continued to boom (aided by the Gold Coast playing host to the 2018 Commonwealth Games). Whilst the Sunshine state topped the number of deals with nine assets transacting over the year, volumes were higher in NSW and VIC with the totals for both boosted by a few CBD sales.

For the first time for more than a decade, the number of rooms opening throughout the year surpassed the number traded with investors focussed on the development of new rooms. In FYE2018 almost 6,500 new rooms came on line in the ten major markets with an estimated value of more than $2.0 billion. This has also resulted in more hotel development site sales with projects offered in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and the Gold Coast over the year. Offshore groups continue to take a lead role in the development of new accommodation rooms, accounting for 40 per cent of rooms opening in FYE2018 and almost two thirds of rooms currently in the pipeline.

We trust you find the Capital Markets Hotel Investment Review an insightful read and, as always, we welcome your feedback.

Trading Performance

Financial Year 2017/18 in Review

Australia’s accommodation pipeline kicked up a gear in FYE2018 with the opening of almost 5,000 new rooms across the ten major markets and a further 1,500 rooms in Sydney and Melbourne’s sub-markets. This is the highest number of new rooms which has opened in any year since 2000 and represents a marked shift in the trading backdrop.

Brisbane and Perth recorded the lion’s share of activity, accounting for almost half of new rooms with notable openings including the Pullman and Ibis at Brisbane Airport, W Brisbane, Westin Perth and InterContinental Perth. More broadly, we note that hotel development is focussed on the luxury and upper upscale segments, reflecting the high proportion of mixed-use developments and prevalence of Asian capital in the accommodation development market. Australia is also playing catch-up with many global luxury brands not currently represented in the key Australian accommodation markets.

Colliers estimates that there is a weighted accommodation pipeline of around 27,000 rooms with almost half of these new rooms currently under construction and 7,000 rooms proposed, thought likely to commence construction in the next six months or are government mandated projects.

All markets, except for Darwin and the Gold Coast, are seeing an accelerated pipeline with openings expected to peak in 2019 and 2020. Development activity is greatest in Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth with increases set to expand the existing supply base by more than one third. The likelihood that projects in planning will proceed has moderated with some projects being offered for sale, put on hold or shelved altogether, particularly as development debt has become constrained.

Notwithstanding, hotel construction activity provides a good barometer for where demand is growing (perhaps with the exception of Perth). With a strong economic backdrop and significant investments in tourism and transport infrastructure, demand is expected to absorb the additional supply over the medium term, particularly as Australia’s appeal as a premium destination for visitors continues to grow.

Inbound arrivals to Australia topped 9 million for the first time ever in FYE2018 with the number of visitors surging 6.2 per cent over the previous year (to May). Whilst leisure travel (holiday and VFR) accounted for three quarters of total inbound visitation, the business and convention segments recorded the strongest growth up 12.2 per cent and 32.6 per cent respectively throughout the year. Growth in convention travel is being supported by investments in infrastructure with new or expanded facilities available in Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne and Perth. The recent launch of a new $12 million fund by Tourism Australia to support the Australian business events industry is also expected to improve Australia’s competitiveness to secure large global events.

Chinese visitors to Australia outnumbered New Zealanders for the first time in FYE2018, with more than 1.42 million visitors from China over the year to April 2018, up 13.7 per cent on the previous year. The number of visitor nights sourced from China spent in hotels has more than doubled over the past ten years. The ability for hoteliers to capture growing demand from China will in part be dependent on the availability of mobile-payment systems (e.g. Alipay) and Mandarin speaking staff.

Against this backdrop, Sydney and Melbourne retained their mantle as the two strongest hotel markets in Australia with both ranked highest for occupancy and room rates in FYE2018. Key leisure markets – Cairns and Gold Coast – also ranked highly against the backdrop of growing inbound leisure arrivals. Growth however was strongest in the smaller state capitals of Darwin and Adelaide. Perth was the only Australian hotel market to record a marked decline in all three key performance indicators.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Sydney

STRONG UPWARD TRAJECTORY

The strong performance of Sydney’s hotel sector continued through FYE2018 with RevPAR increasing 3.2 per cent over the year, supported by a strong economic backdrop and significant investments in infrastructure. There is an unprecedented number of funds being directed towards delivering major transport and infrastructure projects. The opening of the new International Convention Centre in late 2016 has also provided an ongoing boost to the hotel sector.

The opening of around 900 rooms in the CBD in the FYE2018 and a further 1,200 rooms in the metropolitan sub-markets was not without impact with occupancy levels moderating, proving that the city hotel market is not immune to supply impacts. Whilst moderating, occupancy levels still averaged 88 per cent over the year and remain the highest in the country. This indicates that many hotels are operating close to full throughout the week and on Saturdays.

ARR growth maintained its strong upward trajectory, delivering strong returns to owners, and constraining investment activity as a result with owners reluctant to sell whilst income returns are increasing at such a strong rate. Only two CBD hotels transacted in Sydney in FYE2018 with the sale of the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel, which is currently under construction and the Breakfree on Clarence. The Mercure Sydney International Airport also sold for $76.4 million. Two out of the three were acquired by domestic investors which represents a marked change to prior years.

There are new rooms coming into the Sydney city hotel market but the pace of openings is considerably slower than in other major state capitals and projects in the pipeline now face a changed development environment which may see fewer progress than previously anticipated. Many approved hotel projects are being offered for sale as developers look to exit. Of those approved hotel rooms, more than two thirds have been or are being marketed for sale. Whilst some projects may proceed under a new owner, the timing will be delayed pending the outcome of a successful sale and subject to any changes to the proposed hotel scheme. The strong performance of the commercial office segment has also resulted in some hotel projects being put on hold indefinitely.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Melbourne

WEAKENING EVIDENT

Melbourne was one of the more active hotel investment markets in FYE2018 with four major hotel transactions including the Mercure Melbourne Treasury Gardens ($70 million), Adina Melbourne ($43 million), the Royce Hotel ($55 million) and the Sheraton Melbourne ($126.9 million). Only one of these hotels was bought by an offshore group with Qatar Air’s purchase of the Sheraton.

Melbourne’s long-term fundamentals remain strong as the city has shown strong appeal with growth from inbound segments with a large Asian resident population, dynamic dining scene and easy access to many of the desired attractions and activities across the state. International retailers have often targeted Melbourne as a first port of call as a result. Growth from China is expected to continue following the open skies agreement in late 2016 and given the lack of an airport curfew, which presents as a significant advantage over Sydney. International passenger movements through Melbourne Airport have increased by 54 percent over the past five years. This compares to just 30 per cent in Sydney.

Notwithstanding, the performance of Melbourne’s accommodation market has been lacklustre over the past couple of years with RevPAR declining 1.2 per cent in FYE2018. Only one hotel opened in Melbourne city (347 rooms) during the year and the soft demand backdrop remains a concern, particularly during major events.

The supply outlook is also posing headwinds with over 3,000 rooms currently under construction and a further 7,000 rooms in planning. A large portion of these new rooms are luxury standard and will see the entry of new brands to the Australian hotel market, including Ritz Carlton, Mandarin Oriental, Le Meridien and W for example. In a marked contrast to previous years, development activity in the metropolitan sub-markets has also increased with a further 3,000 rooms under construction or proposed.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Brisbane

TRADING APPROACHING STABILISATION

Brisbane was one of the more active hotel transaction markets in FYE2018 with counter-cyclical buyers strategically acquiring assets for repositioning across the CBD as trading performance nears stabilisation. RevPAR increased 1.7 per cent over the year to average $116. Notable sales included the Mercure & Ibis Brisbane, the Emporium Brisbane, Metro Hotel Tower Mill and the Watermark Hotel Brisbane with offshore investors dominating the landscape.

Brisbane is the most advanced in the development cycle with half of rooms in the pipeline having now opened. Although there are some signs that the trading market has bottomed, there are still 1,000 rooms under construction slated to open over the coming year which may see trading decline again albeit only marginally.

The medium-term outlook looks strong with more than $30 billion of infrastructure investments planned. The new Brisbane International Cruise Terminal and Queens Wharf Development are underway which will boost the appeal of Brisbane as a destination for both domestic and international visitors. The airport expansion, slated for completion in 2020, will double the number of passengers that can be accommodated by 2033. More recent mooted proposals include the $2 billion Brisbane Live entertainment precinct, redevelopment of the Eagle Street Pier and the redevelopment of the Roma Street Transit Centre which will result in the Hotel Jen being removed from the market.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Gold Coast

INSPIRED BY THE COMMONWEALTH GAMES The Gold Coast’s accommodation market has been on a strong growth trajectory over the past seven years and reached a pinnacle in April 2018 when the city played host to 2018 Commonwealth Games. With its favourable subtropical climate, surfing beaches, theme parks, nightlife, and rainforest hinterland, the Gold Coast hotel and tourism market has recorded strong growth against a backdrop of improving tourism demand. This has resulted in consistent ARR growth with room rates averaging $195 in FYE2018 with the city ranked third behind Sydney and Melbourne.

The Gold Coast has also experienced a major boost in infrastructure and public transport in the lead up to the Commonwealth Games, with an estimated $2.5 billion spent on upgrading infrastructure. Further developments are also underway with the construction of a new amphitheatre and Art Gallery as part of the 17-hectare Cultural Precinct.

This strong performance is attracting more investors to consider the market but opportunities to acquire hotels remain limited given the high proportion of strata-titled stock. In FYE2018 there was one transaction with SB&G acquiring the Watermark Hotel which was brokered by Colliers International. The hotel will be rebranded to Voco which is IHG’s new upscale lifestyle brand. New development also remains limited with many mooted projects not proceeding, outside of those at the casino. As a result, we expect the market to continue perform well in the coming years.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Cairns

GOING FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH Cairns has been one of Australia’s strongest performing hotel markets over the past three years with near double digit RevPAR growth each year. RevPAR gains moderated slightly in FYE2018, increasing 6.4 per cent year-on-year.

Cairns is benefiting from increasing tourist numbers with the destination attracting renewed interest from domestic and international tourists alike. Inbound visitation has received a major boost from direct flights from mainland China, which has helped smooth traditional seasonality patterns throughout the year. Occupancy levels reached 84.6 per cent in FYE2018, which represents a very high level for a leisure market, and provided a good basis for hoteliers to yield. ARR increased 6.0 per cent over the year – one of the strongest rates of growth for any Australian hotel market.

Investment activity has remained limited, despite the strong fundamentals, with few quality assets offered for sale. Whilst a few hotels are under construction or planned, new hotel development remains generally held back by the lack of feasibility, particularly for large-scale projects. Investments in infrastructure such as the proposed Global Tourism Hub (GTH) are expected to give the local tourism industry a major boost in the coming years and are being complemented by wider government infrastructure spending including the adjoining Trinity Inlet upgrade and the Convention Centre expansion.

BROADENING BASE OF DEMANDCanberra’s overall tourism environment remains positive with RevPAR increasing 4.0 per cent in FY18, continuing the upward trend of the year prior. Canberra  ranked fourth for ARR in FYE18 with room rates averaging $175 throughout the year.

While Canberra will always have a steady flow of corporate travellers, it is also emerging as a favourable destination for leisure travellers with its selection of museums, galleries, historic buildings and a burgeoning food, wine and arts scene. Performance over the coming year however remains subject to the timing of the Australian federal election.

The commencement of direct international flights by Qatar Airlines in 2018 and Singapore Airlines in 2016, has made it easier for tourists to visit Canberra and increased the opportunities for hoteliers to yield. The Government’s commitment to major infrastructure investments such as the ACT Light Rail project and City to Lake project are also very positive for the Canberra region.

The Canberra hotel market is also quite unique in that it has many local owner operator groups with the market tightly held. Local developers were behind the majority of site acquisitions in FYE2018 including Geocon’s acquisition of 70 Bunda Street in the city and West Block in Barton. Notwithstanding, there were three hotel transactions in FY18 including the sale of the Quality Hotel Woden ($16 million), as well as Ibis Styles Canberra ($27.5 million) and Aria Hotel (now Adina hotel) for $35 million. All three assets were acquired by domestic investors.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Adelaide

REACHES NEW HEIGHTS The Adelaide market performed well in FYE2018 with RevPAR increasing 6.6 per cent to be at the highest level ever recorded. Increased flights from Asia, a vibrant CBD and a booming convention precinct are underpinning the strong hotel performance in the South Australian capital and attracting new entrants to the sector.

The Adelaide Convention Centre will complete a $400 million expansion in August 2018. The Centre opened in 1987 as the first purpose built convention centre in Australia. The Government is committed to growing convention business in Adelaide with a focus on bio-medical and space industry events. This follows infrastructure investments such as the AUD$3.6 billion

Adelaide BioMed City precinct, as well as major upgrades to the Adelaide Festival Centre and Adelaide Oval. Works are also now underway for the $330 million expansion of the Adelaide Casino into a world-class integrated entertainment destination, scheduled for completion by 2020.

Against this backdrop, investment activity has increased with a strong forward pipeline of rooms across the city and with two notable transactions occurring over the year. Transactions included the first large-scale investment by an offshore group in Adelaide’s CBD hotel market for almost a decade with the sale of the Mercure and Ibis Styles Grosvenor Hotel for $43 million and Corus Grosvenor Hotel to Singapore’s Chip Eng Seng.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Perth

DOWNWARD TREND YET TO REVERSEPerth hotel performance continues to wane with Perth the only hotel market in Australia to report a marked decline for all three key performance indicators in FYE2018. Whilst the rate of RevPAR decline has slowed over the past year, RevPAR in Perth hotels is now 33 per cent below the 2012-peak and with considerable new supply yet to impact.

Colliers estimates that 818 rooms opened across the city metropolitan in FYE2018 including the InterContinental Perth (238 rooms) and Westin Perth (362 rooms). We are aware of a further 2,258 rooms which are under construction due for completion over the next two years, putting additional downward pressure on occupancy levels and room rates.

Investments in infrastructure and nascent signs of an improving state economy are expected to benefit but are unlikely to be sufficient to offset the near-term downward trend. Over the medium term, the city is expected to see increased demand from more international flights such as Qantas’ non-stop connection to London, as well the proposed $2.5 billion expansion of the airport.

Notwithstanding, there were four hotel transactions in Perth in FYE2018 with counter-cyclical plays by offshore groups. With assets trading for the most part at a significant discount to replacement costs and a much lower level on a price per key basis than in home markets, offshore groups see value in Perth’s hotel market over the long term. The sale of the Holiday Inn City Centre was the largest hotel transaction in Perth with Legend Land purchasing the property for $63.88 million.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Darwin

REBOUNDS STRONGLY After a difficult few years, Darwin’s hotel market rebounded strongly in FYE2018 with the northernmost capital taking out the top spot for RevPAR growth, increasing 8.6 per cent over the previous year against a backdrop of improving demand.

The introduction of SilkAir and Donghai Airlines’ new direct flight routes between Singapore and Broome, and Shenzhen and Darwin is expected to boost visitor numbers into northern Australia further over the coming year. Notwithstanding, RevPAR remains well-short of the 2014-high with low levels of investment activity as a result.

The $200 million luxury hotel development by the Landbridge Group is progressing and pending relevant approvals, construction will commence later in 2018 with the hotel expected to open to guests in 2021. The Hotel’s Precinct Plan proposes connections within the Waterfront to enable the precinct to function as an integrated whole, anchored by the Darwin Convention Centre at one end and the Hotel and Cruise Ship Terminal at the other end.

Key Accommodation Markets Overview

Hobart

WEIGHED DOWN BY NEW SUPPLYHobart hotel market’s bull run came to a halt in FYE2018 with the market proving it wasn’t bullet proof to increases in room supply. Two major hotels opened in the city over the year, introducing an additional 410 rooms including the luxury MACq1 and the midscale Ibis Styles. Occupancy levels reduced 5.2 per cent over the year to average 79.0 per cent. This is the first time that annual average occupancies have dipped below 80 per cent in Hobart for more than four years.

New stock is of a higher grade and quality than existing rooms which resulted in ARR increasing marginally over the year. At $170, room rates in Hobart ranked fifth in Australia for ARR in FYE2018 with room rates at a higher level than Brisbane and Perth. This is attracting more investors to the market.

Colliers estimates that a further 511 rooms are currently under construction scheduled to open over the next two years and an additional eight projects in planning. With such a strong forward pipeline of new rooms, investors remain cautious with respect to the acquisition of established stock, despite growing tourism demand. The introduction of international air services in the coming years has the potential to shift the demand floor once again which is likely to attract more investors in the medium term.

New ZealandInvestment Market

The New Zealand hotel market continues to perform at historically high levels on the back of the 5th consecutive year of a tourism boom, which has seen a record 3.8 million international visitors visit the country in the past 12 months.

This has culminated in positive RevPAR growth in all the major hotel markets over the past 12 months. In particular Queenstown which has experienced 17.1 per cent RevPAR growth for the YE June 2018 followed by Rotorua at 6.4 per cent.

Demand continues to outstrip supply, with a fundamental shortage of hotel inventory in most key regions, with minimal new stock entering the market in recent times. In the past 12 months, we have seen just 693 rooms completed corresponding to a 3.1 per cent increase in total supply. This compares to international visitation numbers which grew at 4.0 per cent for the 12 months ending June 2018.

Whilst we continue to see an increasing number of projects being proposed, we have seen very few new projects commence construction in the past 12 months (circa 600 rooms) due to a range of factors including high land and construction costs, the recently imposed Auckland Council targeted rate on hotels, delays in consenting, and challenges with resources in the construction sector. This will result in limited new hotels being delivered until post 2021 (other than those already under construction).

The announcement that New Zealand’s largest construction company will no longer partake in any new vertical construction projects; is another critical factor in the challenge of delivering new hotel developments moving forward.

In the meantime, the New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC) is on track to open in late 2019 with an anticipated 33,000 delegates annually together with Auckland hosting the APEC summit and the Americas Cup in 2021; which will create even more stress on existing hotel inventory until more stock is built.

On the transaction front, while there continues to be strong investment demand from both offshore and domestic investors, there have been very few sales of major hotels in the past 12 months, as existing hotel investors continue to enjoy buoyant trading conditions, and hold onto their assets. This being said, in the past six months there have been several major hotels in key markets offered to the market which are likely to be met with strong levels of interest.

We note below the recent sales completed in New Zealand over the past 12 months;

Best Western President Hotel: - The first FHGC hotel in the Auckland CBD in the past five years has attracted significant interest. The majority interests in this hotel were sold to New Zealand’s largest hotel owner, Pandey Hotel Corporation, for an undisclosed sum and set a record investment yield of under 7.0 per cent.

CQ Wellington - The 177 room CQ Hotels in Wellington has been conditionally sold to Singaporean Naumi Hotel Group for an undisclosed sum.

VR Queen Street – comprising an 80 room hotel which sold for $25.0 million in March 2018 at a passing yield of 3.82 per cent and a value per key of $312,500. The hotel is subject to a 30 year lease from 2014 with structured annual rental increases and a market review next occurring in 2022.

Lifestyle Hotels – the Next Big Thing

Driven by the chains, lifestyle hotels are the next generation of boutique hotels. They borrow the best elements of boutiques – small, intimate and modern – and throw in advantages only a chain can offer, like loyalty programs, distribution and economies of scale. As a result, lifestyle hotels are generally more affordable and accessible than boutique hotels but acknowledge that travellers are not singular in their wants and needs.

MORE AFFORDABLE AND ACCESSIBLE

ACKNOWLEDGE THAT TRAVELLERS ARE NOT

SINGULAR IN THEIR WANTS AND NEEDS

The growth of the boutique and lifestyle hotel sector has been one of the most watched global hotel trends in recent years. After decades of standardisation, there is growing attention to more differentiated product and boutique & lifestyle hotels have emerged as a considerable segment of the global hotel market.

Each brand has made a targeted shift to cater to guests’ specific lifestyles, from tech-savvy millennials to health-conscious athletes. Although the presentation and design differs amongst the lifestyle hotel brands, it is evident that the key elements are consistent. Key features that discern lifestyle hotels include:

▶ Focus on the experience rather than simply the product or service;

▶ Connect individuals and build relationships;

▶ Connect with their local environment to leverage what the precinct offers;

▶ Offer innovative facilities and new forms of entertainment;

▶ Enhance online presence and implement aggressive marketing strategies and;

▶ Emphasise life enrichment, creativity, and rejuvenation.

Australia has a small but growing boutique/lifestyle hotel segment with an established collection of well-known independent hotels primarily located in the major state capitals. More recently we have seen the entrance of Asian boutique and lifestyle operators including the Unlisted Collection (Old Clare), Como Hotels from Singapore and Ovolo Hotels from Hong Kong.

Domestic operators have also been active in this space with Mantra acquiring the Art Series portfolio of hotels (developed by Melbourne’s Deague family) and Event developing their QT and Atura brands. New boutique/lifestyle chains are also being developed, for example Veriu, Tribe and Little National.

BROAD CONSUMER ACCEPTANCE Whilst still in its infancy, Sydney ’s boutique and lifestyle hotel market has expanded over the past six years with the opening and/or repositioning of nine properties and the entry of new lifestyle and soft hotel brands. New rooms have been fully absorbed, highlighting the appeal of this product with consumers, particularly the growing Millennial workforce.

RevPAR growth for lifestyle hotels in Sydney has been stronger than for the broader city hotel market, making it an attractive segment for investors. In 2017 Sydney’s lifestyle segment achieved a RevPAR index of 1.01 when compared to the city hotel market which includes the Sydney Harbour ‘dress circle’ hotels. Occupancy levels were slightly lower (index of 0.96) with many properties located in the city fringe but ADR was higher (index of 1.05). ADR is a key driver of investment returns.

Lifestyle Hotels – the Next Big Thing (cont.)

With the evidence pointing to a potential competitive advantage, we are seeing more investors willing to consider lifestyle brands with many new brands now offered by the major international groups. Lifestyle & boutique hotels currently account for around 10 per cent of the national accommodation pipeline but we expect this to grow in the coming years.

Rapidly gentrifying areas may not be ideal for legacy hotel brands, but they’re perfect for travellers who want to feel more integrated into the fabric of a city and can offer the potential for character-packed buildings. Lifestyle hotels are increasingly being used as ‘place makers’, leading to the creation of vibrant accommodation precincts for creatives and tech workers, and a target for visitors.

EXTENDING APPEAL BEYOND JUST THE ROOMS Globally, luxury lifestyle and boutique hotels have been shown to draw a greater proportion of their revenue from food and beverage with innovative outlets driving additional patronage into hotels, whereas midscale lifestyle brands have relied on the local environment to provide this amenity to guests.

The Australian food and beverage industry has grown strongly in recent years, with an explosion of design-driven spaces which offer genuine customer service and a true point of difference. With more people investing in experiences over material goods, consumers are paying to be enticed and taken on a journey. With a thriving dining culture, founded in fusion, Australia’s bar scene has also expanded with speakeasy’s, gin bars and gastro-pubs.

Historically Australian hotels have steered away from food and beverage with a tendency to lease out spaces or minimise operations altogether, owing to the complexities of operating in a high labour cost environment. Hotel operators will therefore need to adjust business models if they are to compete against an already competitive food & beverage landscape. Outlet design to maximise efficiencies and talent strategies which attract best-in-class staff will be critical if lifestyle hotels are to thrive in Australia.

Investment Outlook & Forecast Indicators

Strong growth in the tourism sector is attracting more investors, broadening the capital base and providing a strong foundation for increased activity over the medium term. With more than $1 billion worth of hotel assets currently being marketed or in play, we expect transaction activity to increase in FYE2019. Deals are taking longer, however, as banks have tightened their lending and policy changes impact the structure of global funds.

Investors from Mainland China have fallen behind the rest of Asia as the largest group of inbound capital. This trend is likely to continue with South East Asian investors dominating the offshore investment landscape, driven by renewed interest in diversification, both in terms of location and product. Despite recent government crackdowns on outbound capital, Chinese investors still have the appetite to invest however their investment criteria has changed and we expect to see fewer acquisitions of high-profile trophy assets as a result.

Australia remains a favoured hotel investment market due to its economic performance, stability, transparency and governance. Population growth, large infrastructure projects, increasing urbanisation and strong state economies are also driving valuation growth and supporting opportunities for new hotel development.

Based on the yield evidence, the past four years has seen a continued compression of yields; from over 9 per cent in 2013 to just under 6 per cent in FYE2018 and approaching the level of the last cyclical low in 2011. We expect to see little change over the coming year, although a slight softening is likely in those markets where there is significant new accommodation supply.

As Australia transitions to a more diversified service-based economy, tourism is becoming increasingly important and has the potential to be Australia’s fastest growing industry. Globally, travel continues to take a larger share of consumer spending and visitor expenditure in Australia is projected to continue to grow at a strong rate.

The influence of demographics presents new opportunities for the hotel sector, as developers and brands seek to remain ahead of the curve in catering to both established and emerging generations of corporate employees and leisure travellers. Strong growth in inbound tourism, particularly from China, increased leisure travel by wealthy retiring baby boomers and catering to Millennials as the largest segment of the workforce are all factors which investors should consider over the coming year.

Note: In July 2017, the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs introduced changes to the incoming passenger card. The change was to capture the main reason for journey for both residents returning, and visitors arriving in Australia. The ABS has noted changes in the distribution of responses to the question on main reason for journey for short-term visitor arrivals in recent months, notably an increase in the number of persons reporting that the main reason for travel was visiting friends and relatives and a decline in the number of persons reporting the main reason was a holiday. The ABS is investigating possible explanations for these changes.
