Orange County opened 13 new hotels in 2001, according to the report by Costa Mesa-based Atlas Hospitality Group. A total of 3,284 new rooms were added as a result, which reflects an increase of 392% from 2000.
At year-end 2001, Orange County had 29 new hotels in the pipeline, marking a 17% decline from 2000. San Diego County, in comparison, led the state with 62 new hotels planned. However, the county only added three new hotels in 2001. As the report points out, this is indicative of the problems that developers often face in getting their projects financed here.
Northern California provided a striking contrast to the Southland, as Santa Clara County led the region with only 8 new hotels opened in 2001. This county also was planning the most amount of new hotel development, with 26 projects in the pipeline.
