• 24-hour reception desk
• Fully equipped kitchen and dining area
• On-site laundry facilities

1. Property: The cost of acquiring a suitable property is approximately $1,000,000.


2. Renovation: The estimated cost of renovating the building to turn it into a hostel is
approximately $500,000. This includes the cost of installing new plumbing, electrical wiring,
air conditioning, and heating systems, as well as painting, decorating, and furnishing the
hostel.
3. Operating Costs: The estimated monthly operating cost of the hostel is approximately
$25,000. This includes salaries for the receptionists, cleaning staff, and maintenance crew, as

marketing, and contingency fund is approximately $2,850,000.

Revenue and Profitability: The hostel will charge an average of $30 per night per guest. Assuming an
average occupancy rate of 70%, the hostel can generate an estimated revenue of $383,250 per
month. After deducting the estimated monthly operating costs of $25,000, the hostel can expect to
make an estimated profit of $358,250 per month. This translates to an annual profit of approximately

that offers affordable accommodations to budget-conscious travelers. With the estimated revenue
and profitability, this project has the potential to generate a healthy return on investment in a
relatively short period. The hostel's location, amenities, and competitive pricing will make it an
attractive option for backpackers and young travelers looking for a comfortable, safe, and budget-
