Hotels industry overview
Hotel business is recovering as leisure travel continues to roar, and ‘bleisure’ (a mix of business and leisure) trips are growing. Corporate travel is down compared with pre-pandemic levels but a rise in group and event bookings is boosting occupancy. The pandemic has forced hotels to operate leaner and more efficiently in light of inflationary pressures.
Why it matters:
Occupancy and daily rates at hotels are almost back to pre-pandemic levels.
- As a lot of work moved online during the pandemic, this has fuelled the demand for flexible travel, as many travellers combine business and pleasure trips, lengthening hotel stays and generating more revenue.
- The focus on sustainability and energy efficiency are likely to keep the sector profitable in the long run
Between the lines:
Despite growth, the industry faces challenges from rising costs and economic uncertainty.
- Hotels are optimizing operations by reducing staff and implementing technology to manage inflation impacts.
- The secondary market is holding back, as investors are waiting for interest rates and the general cost of funding to stabilise further.
