| | hotel traffic | Explanation:
this should work. Traffic is one of the translations given for movimiento in dictionaries.
According to the Boston Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB), hotels in Cambridge have a combined total of 2,307 rooms. According to a 1997 survey conducted for the Cambridge Office of Tourism, approximately 37 percent of all hotel traffic in the city is university-related. Assuming that Harvard accounts for 60 percent of the university-related traffic, and an average occupancy rate of 78 percent, we can estimate that Harvard generated approximately 145,000 room-nights of hotel traffic in Cambridge. If we further assume that the University generates hotel traffic in Boston in proportion to the scale of its Boston operations, we can estimate total Harvard-related hotel traffic at approximately 215,000 room-nights annually.
There is some minor construction taking place in the main lobby, but should not be of any inconvenience. The concierge, directing hotel traffic in the main lobby, will be able to direct you to the room where the meeting will be held. The front desk will be able to assist you with any special needs or requests.
