　長野県野沢温泉村に、外国人富裕層向けの大規模リゾートホテル開発計画が浮上した。東京の不動産投資会社が資金調達して80億円を投入、開発を委託された英ＩＨＧホテルズ＆リゾーツは、「ホテルインディゴ」として、2027年に開業の予定だ。建設される客室棟は２棟、それぞれが９階建てで約100ルームを備えるとする。近年の主な外資系ホテルの事例は以下の通りである。
　ところで、ホテル特化型上場REIT（不動産投資信託）の2024年度のADR（平均客室単価）が、コロナ禍前の2019年度を上回る見通しである。中価格帯ホテルを主力とするいちごホテルREIT、中高級ホテルを保有するジャパン・ホテルREIT、高級ホテルを保有する星野リゾートREITの2024年度のADRは、いずれも2019年度比で2桁増加。全価格帯で好調だった（ジャパン・ホテルREITの2024年度は中間期の予想）。インバウンド急増のおかげである。
