Hotels expect 50% drop / Survey predicts huge income losses for Fukushima properties : DAILY YOMIURI ONLINE

Hotels and traditional inns in Fukushima Prefecture are expected to see their income drop by about 50 percent in the year following the March 11 disaster from the corresponding period in the previous year, according to a survey by an industry association.

Following the outbreak of the crisis at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, the Fukushima Prefecture Ryokan Hotel Association sent questionnaires in May to its member hotels and inns about the resulting damage to their business.
