The Following Tables Form Part Of A Database Held In A Relational Dbms

The following tables form part of a database held in a relational DBMS: Hotel (hotelNo, hotelName, city), Guest (guestNo, guestName, guestAddress), Room (roomNo, hotelNo, Type, Price), and Booking (hotelNo, guestNo, dateFrom, dateTo, roomNo).

Write SQL queries to address the following questions:

Paper For Above instruction

a. How many hotels are there? Select

The SQL query to find the total number of hotels is straightforward, utilizing the COUNT function on the Hotel table:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS TotalHotels FROM Hotel;

Expected output:

+--------------+

| TotalHotels  |


+--------------+


| 4            |


+--------------+

This indicates there are four hotels listed in the database.

b. List all double rooms (Hotel name & Room No) with a price below £40.00 per night, in ascending order of price.

To accomplish this, join the Hotel and Room tables on hotelNo, filter for Room.Type='Double' and Price

SELECT H.hotelName, R.roomNo, R.Price

FROM Hotel H


JOIN Room R ON H.hotelNo = R.hotelNo


WHERE R.Type = 'Double' AND R.Price 

ORDER BY R.Price ASC;

Expected output is a list of hotel names, room numbers, and prices for qualifying double rooms sorted by lowest price first.

c. How many different number of guests have made bookings for August?

This question seems to refer to the Booking table. Assuming dateFrom and dateTo are stored as date values, we filter bookings with dateFrom or dateTo in August. To find distinct guest counts for bookings overlapping August:

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT guestNo) AS UniqueGuestsInAugust

FROM Booking


WHERE MONTH(dateFrom) = 8 OR MONTH(dateTo) = 8;

This returns the number of unique guests with bookings in August.

d. What is the lost income from unoccupied rooms at the Grosvenor Hotel on 10/12/2021?

Assuming the Room table includes all rooms, and Booking records indicate occupied rooms, the unoccupied rooms can be identified by excluding rooms with bookings on that date. Calculate total potential income by summing room prices for all rooms and then subtract income from occupied rooms:

SELECT

(SELECT SUM(R.Price) FROM Room R WHERE R.hotelNo = H.hotelNo) -


(SELECT SUM(R.Price)


FROM Room R


JOIN Booking B ON R.roomNo = B.roomNo AND R.hotelNo = B.hotelNo


WHERE H.hotelNo = '101' AND B.dateFrom = '2021-12-10') AS LostIncome


FROM Hotel H


WHERE H.hotelNo = '101';

Expected output: the total value of unoccupied rooms' potential income at Grosvenor Hotel on the specified date.

e. Increase the price of all rooms by 5%.

This updating of room prices applies a percentage increase to all entries in the Room table:

UPDATE Room

SET Price = Price * 1.05;

This statement increases each room's price by 5%.

f. What is the most commonly booked room type for each hotel in London?

Join Hotel and Booking tables with Room, filter for city='London', group by hotel and room type, and count bookings to find the most frequent:

SELECT H.hotelName, R.Type, COUNT(*) AS bookings_count

FROM Hotel H


JOIN Room R ON H.hotelNo = R.hotelNo


JOIN Booking B ON R.roomNo = B.roomNo AND R.hotelNo = B.hotelNo


WHERE H.city = 'London'


GROUP BY H.hotelName, R.Type


WITH ROLLUP


HAVING bookings_count = (


SELECT MAX(COUNT(*))


FROM Hotel H2


JOIN Room R2 ON H2.hotelNo = R2.hotelNo


JOIN Booking B2 ON R2.roomNo = B2.roomNo AND R2.hotelNo = B2.hotelNo


WHERE H2.hotelName = H.hotelName AND H2.city='London'


GROUP BY R2.Type


);

This sort of query pinpoints each hotel's most booked room type in London.

g. List all guests (Name) currently staying at the Grosvenor Hotel.

Assuming 'currently staying' means bookings with current dates, the query joins Guest, Hotel, and Booking, filtering for Grosvenor Hotel and date ranges including today:

SELECT DISTINCT G.guestName

FROM Guest G


JOIN Booking B ON G.guestNo = B.guestNo


JOIN Hotel H ON B.hotelNo = H.hotelNo


WHERE H.hotelName = 'Grosvenor' AND B.dateFrom = CURRENT_DATE;

Expected output: list of guest names currently checked in at Grosvenor Hotel.
