International travel has yet to resume in much of the Asia Pacific as borders have remained closed. But some hotel groups and companies in the region have been busy either renovating old properties or building new ones, to prepare for a tourism restart, hopefully by the end of 2021.

A handful have also launched online – without publishing any booking dates or options – just so that they can build their brand and get their name out in the market first.
