The hotel still needs to make money, so getting it open as quickly as possible even after a horrific incident is important for the bottom line of the company that runs it.

Fix all the damage, put up a plaque or other memorial to the victims, and then move forward.

This may seem harsh, but economic interests don't permanently go away when disasters happen.

I'm not sure what that has to do with anything I said.

Honest question - when should any business or organization re-open after a tragedy happens on it's grounds? I doubt that the answer is "never".
