Donald Trump's Hotels Are Not Getting Bookings

Some of Donald Trump's hotels are not getting bookings, it appears.

At the time of writing, there is availability at four of Trump's hotels for around the next 18 months.

At Trump's Las Vegas hotel, there is availability every night until January 2025. There is availability today, November 3, for $235 at the 1,282 room hotel, which was this year ranked the world's 10th ugliest building, and availability tomorrow, November 4 for $199.

In his 176-room New York hotel, where there is availability until April 2025, a room for tonight costs $878.

Over in Chicago, where there are 339 rooms, rooms are available for tonight at $414 and there is also space until April 2025.

There is availability among the 462 rooms in his Waikiki hotel in Hawaii too, which costs $414 tonight. Prospective guests can also make bookings until April 2025.

Newsweek has contacted Trump Hotels to comment on this story via a website email form.

Trump's former flagship hotel, the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., ran into financial problems and in 2022 its lease was sold to the CGI Merchant Group for a reported $375 million.

The hotel had suffered major losses thanks to a mixture of the COVID-19 pandemic and a decline in prestige since Trump left the White House.

Meanwhile, his golf courses also appear to be struggling to attract customers, with discounts for tee times being offered online at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami.

Financial filings made available in 2020 showed that Doral made a profit of $4.3 million on $75 million of revenue in 2017. Revenue fell to less than $45 million in 2020.

While the aforementioned four hotels have booking availability, some dates in November and December at the Virgina Albermarle Estate at Trump Winery in Virginia are fully booked.

This is also the case in MacLeod House & Lodge in Aberdeen, which is fully booked on most days until March 2024, and Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Doonbeg in Ireland, which is booked until April.

Trump Turnberry in Ayrshire, Scotland, is also booked on most nights until February 2024.

This week the Republican presidential hopeful has faced further challenges regarding legal proceedings against him. His sons Eric and Donald Jr. are testifying in his civil fraud trial in which he is accused of inflating the value of assets to obtain favorable loans and insurance deals. Trump denies all wrongdoing.

Today is was reported that the judge in his election tampering case will push ahead with jury selection, despite requests from the former president's lawyers for her to postpone the trial.
