Why Hotel Miramar closed down when Singapore tourism are blooming?

Hotel old, need lots of money to refurbish might as well close and sell it away.

if it is doing well, it won’t close

Think inside probably old and not kept up

Cos no business

you don't need to worry about the owners :ROFLMAO:

Hotel Miramar Singapore close to sealing sale at under S$200 million​

Asset manager Aravest, a unit of Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing, is tipped as the buyer and is expected to rope in an international hotel management group

The hotels in that area are ~ 50 years old.

Unless the owners have deep pockets and are prepared to top up lease and refurb/ rebuild and have children who are interested and capable enough to continue running the hotels, it might be better off to cash out and put the money into a family office/ trust and give the children fixed monthly allowances.

50 year hotel with legacy infrastructure , pipes, electrical , all those
without huge investment to do everything , tear down and redo.

How to charge proper room rates? And if do major refrub is usually more costly then instead
FAST HAND FAST LEG demolish and rebuild , add more features mixed use or what not.
