			<description><![CDATA[Dear Rina, I abslolutely agree with every word you wrote, it is the best and most intelligent comment that I have read up until now. I hope that more people will have our same thoughts.................one cannot make a quick-buck in a few days becasue 1. the guests will not book in at all 2. in the long run the overseas guests will not come back to this awesome country and they will miss out on a lot through our own greed .]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In our area 1000Hills/ Hillcrest outside Durban, not too positive as Durban looks messy and we have heard that people would prefer to fly from Jhb to matches in Dbn and then back to Jhb. Seems very little accommodation is being booked in Durban area by visitors.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I do not understand why accommodation is getting the blame for the bad ticket sales, look at the crime, bad reputation of Africa as a whole and the recession. Yes we dit put our prices up, it is standard worldwide and people know that. On our trip to Singapore accommodation was R600 a night one weekend and R2000 the next with the Grand Prix. Same when trying to go to the Rio Carnival, prices are higher and I would certainly not expect cheap accommodation anywhere during huge events. In Durban our rates were put up by 500% 2 years ago to cover the cost of the new stadium. As guest houses we are getting a rebate now but we fought for it for 18 months, still our randage is the highest in the country so we are going to pay for years to come for this stadium so just fair we try and make a bit of money during the world cup. We are not ripping people off (have not even double the rate - tripling the rate is unacceptable I think). At this stage we are more than 50% full.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I chose not to go with Match as the insist that you be graded. Our establishment is a self catering cottage which was built 2006, and we put all new furnishings and fittings. The possibility that they would not use us was strong as we are 15 km from Central Durban.The enquiries and bookings I have received are from my overseas websites,gumtre e and our own website.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[There is life before and after the world cup and ordinary tourists will also be around. We are in a small country town off the main routes and really would rather not commit ourselves to the dubious quality of guests we may get, or get involved in the hoopla, so our stats really do not apply]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[MATCH has allocated us 30 bednights from 13-28 June - our original contract was till 29 June. Many other establishments in Plettenberg Bay have had all their bednights released. {Was it because my rates are very reasonable?] Our Plett Guest Accommodation Association will be going all out to promote our members' establishments. We hope to attract French and Danish visitors especially, as their teams will be based nearby.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We have a 40 year old accommodation business, graded, serviced and fully equipped accommodation and do not expect to derive any benefit from the WC as we are based 20 kms outside a host town. Could the tourism offices please mention that the southern cape will have accommodation available for our regular tourists!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Knysna is very fortunate hosting two teams during the world cup. Due to the fact that media and technical support follows the teams closely a lot of graded accommodation has been sourced. A great pity that the Matchville concept was promised but not delivered. Properties that have hiked their rates out of all proportion may really suffer.]]></description>
