The sophistication of accommodation for hotel guests has grown particularly in Prague in the form of avalanches. At the moment, it is not uncommon that up to loo strangers are without accommodation in Prague every day and have to spend the night sitting in hotel halls in Jusv. The reasons for these difficulties are to be found in different ways: Compared with the number of hotels that have been reduced since l939, the first is the fact of an uninterrupted immigration to Prague. This migration is due to the enlargement of the Wehrmacht services, the authorities, and in particular - about since August 1993 - to the ever-increasing relocation of production sites, businesses, etc. to Prague as a result of the air war. As immigrants have long ceased to be able to enter the housing market, they are burdening the hotels. Secondly, for some time now, there has been an effort to hold meetings, meetings and other events in Prague, which is essentially also due to the air war. Third, the hotels are burdened by people who come to Prague for sufficient reasons, but who remain in Prague for more or less a long time after the disappearance of these reasons. B. The official measures to mitigate this situation must go in three directions: 1. reduction of the number of permanent tenants as far as possible, 2. prevention of unwanted, i.e. non-war-important inflow, 3. extension of the important inflow. 1.
