新加坡短租平台Roomorama挂了，短租的冬天到了？

【环球旅讯】（本文编译自Tnooz）总部位于新加坡的B2C度假租赁平台Roomorama近日决定关闭其网站，停止接受新的在线预订业务。该公司把决定关闭网站的原因归咎于“竞争加剧和监管的阻力”。

Roomorama官网页面的公告称，已经预订了的短租订单将会得到执行。

据该公司发言人透露，目前Roomorama的B2B业务平台Bridge Rental也停止了运营。

Bridge Rentals和携程有分销协议，而Roomorama则与途家和HomeAway共享库存。

Roomorama称其可租赁的房源数量达30万。

Roomorama成立于2009年，于2012年与其欧洲竞争对手Loftly合并，并获得了210万美元种子轮融资。此后该公司未获得更多的融资。

据新加坡媒体DealStreetAsia猜测，Roomorama关闭网站预订可能和其财务状况有关，早在今年年初，印度短租平台Stayzilla也因为资金短缺原因而关闭。

亚洲科技媒体Tech in Asia认为，2012年在新加坡设立办公室的美国民宿鼻祖Airbnb也给Roomorama带来不少竞争压力。

另外，在当地政府监管层面，近年来新加坡政府对共享经济管理日趋严格，其颁布的短租禁令使得Airbnb在该国家发展遇阻。其实新加坡早有规定禁止私人住宅租期低于6个月，违者将被处以20万新元（约合141,400美元）的罚款，或被判处最多一年的监禁。

新的法律赋予市建局人员更大的权力，可向任何涉嫌违反本条规则的人士进行讯问，还有权要求提供有关违法行为的相关信息或文件，采集现场视频证据，并强行进入有关住宅。（Nic编译）

[global travel inquiry](compiled from Tnooz), Roomorama, a Singapore based B2C vacation rental platform, recently decided to shut down its website and stop accepting new online booking services. The company attributed the decision to shut down the site to &ldquo, the intensifying competition and the regulatory resistance ”.

The announcement of the Roomorama official website said that a short rental order has been booked.

According to the company spokesman revealed that the current Roomorama B2B business platform Bridge Rental also stopped operations.

Bridge, Rentals, and Ctrip have distribution agreements, while Roomorama shares inventory with road home and HomeAway.

Roomorama says its rental listings amount to 300 thousand.

Founded in 2009, Roomorama merged with its European competitor Loftly in 2012 and won $2 million 100 thousand in seed round financing. Since then, the company has not received more financing.

According to Singapore media DealStreetAsia speculation, Roomorama closed website booking may be related to its financial situation, as early as the beginning of this year, India short rental platform Stayzilla also because of lack of funds for reasons closed.

Asian technology media Tech in Asia believes that in 2012 the establishment of offices in Singapore B&B America originator Airbnb Roomorama also brought a lot of competition pressure.

In addition, the local government regulatory level, in recent years the government of Singapore on sharing economic management is becoming more and more strict, the promulgation of the short rent ban makes Airbnb in the national development difficult. In fact, Singapore has already imposed a ban on private housing for a period of less than 6 months, and offenders will be fined $200 thousand ($141400) or sentenced to up to one year's imprisonment.

The new law gives the URA staff more power can be interrogated to any person suspected of violating this rule, have the right to request relevant violations of the relevant information or documents, collect video evidence, and forced into the house. (Nic compilation)
