This paper analyzes the impact of high-speed rail (HSR) on regional tourism from the perspective of per capita hotel consumption and regional hotel industry market power in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. This paper shows that the construction of HSR is not conducive to the coordinated development of the inter-regional hotel industry, especially when there is a large gap in economic development and tourism competitiveness between the two places, the siphoning effect of HSR will be very obvious. HSR may become a factor that restricting the development of hotel industry in economically backward areas.
