U.S. Hotel Performance Falls on Easter Timing for Week Ending April 4

A shift in the Easter holiday distorted year-over-year comparisons.

Overview

  • CoStar said U.S. hotels logged 60.6% occupancy, a $160.21 average daily rate, and $97.02 in revenue per available room.
  • Compared with the same week last year, occupancy fell 5.0%, RevPAR dropped 5.1%, and room rates were essentially flat at down 0.1%.
  • CoStar linked the weaker results to Easter landing in a different week, which shifted leisure travel and large events.
