In general, the term of the star hotel general manager is 2-3 years which will step down after the expiration. However, contacting the current financial crisis, the number of stars hotel at a short period of time focused on the replacement of CEOs would be an attracted suspicion.

There are a lot of factors for hotels to replace professional managers, but it is undeniable that hotel profit has been decreased to reduce the cost required. The downturn in the hotel industry in the current circumstances, the professional managers are relatively good to look for in which you can lower the salary, which I am afraid is considered to be the most important factor for hotel investors.



        一般来说，星级酒店总经理任期为2—3年，任满后就会卸任，更迭是较正常的。但联系当前的金融危机来看，在短时间内多家星级酒店集中更换老总未免引人猜疑。
        亦有公开资料显示，近期北京、上海等一线城市高星级酒店的出租率同比下滑了30%左右。如香格里拉这样的五星级酒店，欧美游客的入住率则下降了10%-12%，位于上海金茂大厦内的君悦大酒店入住率仅为50％，而洲际酒店集团在2008年第三财季盈利同比减少了28%。
        酒店更换职业经理人有很多因素，但不可否认的是：酒店盈利减少，需要缩减成本。而在目前酒店业不景气情况下，酒店职业经理人相对好找，可以通过换人降低薪酬，这恐怕是酒店投资方考虑的最重要的因素。
        奥运之后，整个酒店业界乐观畅想的美好繁荣的酒店市场没有到来，金融危机却来了，如当头棒喝，把我们从分享盛宴的狂欢中敲醒。这样的背景下，我们的酒店职业经理人不可避免的受到冲击，他们将如何把握自己的未来，守成还是超越？“经济寒冬”的寒意或许能让我们更清醒。
