The general manager of the $60 million Hyatt Regency in Jerusalem has his hands full filling beds in the 520-room facility in the midst of the in- tifada and a resulting decline in tourism to Israel, par- ticularly among American Jews. Claims by Palestinians that the hotel sits on 7.5 acres of "confiscated" Arab land near Mt. Scopus, and a call among some Arab leaders to boycott the hotel and the Hyatt chain — which operates in Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Morocco and Egypt — are off base, he believes. "We're an easy target: he said last week. "And if we are seen as a barometer of what's happening (to Israeli tourism as a result of the intifada), then God bless because you can't get a room in this hotel for the next 14 days." A combination of con- ferences by the Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education, the United Jewish Appeal Young Leadership, Israel Bonds and a 350-person pilgrimmage organized by Louisiana-based television evangelist Jimmy Swaggart gave the Hyatt its first string of full bookings since opening in January. After logging occupancy rates of less than 30 percent in its initial months and fac- ing the prospect of closing, Rafelson said the hotel achieved a 50 percent oc- cupancy in June and turned a profit. He pegged July's oc- cupancy at 60 percent and projected a 70 percent rate for August. "1988 was supposed to be a good year for us," he said. "We expected occupancy levels of more than 60 percent, based in part on Israel's 40th an- niversary. And 1989 wasn't projected to be as good. "But as good as our plan was, we had to set it aside and go back to our ownership (because of the intifada)," he added. Rafelson, who managed the Hyatt on Capital Square in Columbus, Ohio, before accep- ting the Jerusalem position in January, recently spent more than a month in the U.S. in an effort to lure tourists back to Israel and promote the Hyatt as Jerusalem's premier hotel. Rafelson acknowledged that his five-star competitors, such as the Dan chain's King David and the new LaRomme, are also calling on American travel agencies and Jewish communal leaders for a share of the same pie. "But there's enough to go after, and we are going after it," he added. "Im"I NEWS Press Closure Is Reduced Tel Aviv (JTA) — A one- week closure of the Hebrew daily Hadashot ordered by the military censor was cut down to one hour, after edit- ors apologized for violating censorship regulations. The censor ordered Hadashot closed after the newspaper failed to present for pre-publication censorship two stories on promotions and resignations within the Israel Defense Force.
