The 2011 second quarter revenues included $2,491,000 from Sonesta Bayfront Hotel Coconut Grove, a condominium hotel the Company acquired on July 1, 2010. Prior to that date the Company operated the Hotel under a management contract. Revenues during the first six months of 2011 totaled $6,050,000. Royal Sonesta New Orleans and Royal Sonesta Boston reported increases in revenues of 9% and 12%, respectively. Revenues from management activities decreased due to the political unrest in Egypt where the Company operates a collection of hotels and Nile cruise ships. Despite the robust increase in domestic hotel revenues, the Company reported a modest increase in net income during the 2011 second quarter because of higher operating costs at the Company's hotels in Boston and New Orleans, and decreased management income from the Company's operations in Egypt.
