Hotel occupancy rates - additional information

The occupancy rate of a hotel is the share of available rooms that are occupied or being rented during a given time. Occupancy, along with average daily rate (ADR) and revenue per available room (RevPAR), is an important indicator of a hotel’s performance.

For the most part, between 2015 and 2019, the occupancy rate of hotels in the four regions has remained between 50 and 80 percent. However, there have been some occasions where occupancy has drifted outside these margins. In June 2017, for example, the occupancy rate of hotels in the Middle East and Africa fell to just 47.5 percent. Europe has exceeded a rate of 80 percent thrice during the given time frame, once in September 2015, September 2016 and again in September 2017.

The hotel industry in the United States accounted for 208 billion U.S. dollars in revenue in 2017.
