Methodological note

Hotel sector profitability indicators are ADR and RevPAR:

  • ADR: Average Daily Rate
  • RevPAR: Revenue per Available Room

In both definitions, income refers to payments received by hoteliers for the provision of accommodation services, excluding other types of services (and VAT) offered by the establishment, such as restaurant services, mini bars, hydro massage pools, gyms, hosting meetings and events, etc.

The following relation exists between both indicators:

RevPAR ≈ADR * Occupancy rate per rooms

An increase (or decrease) in the RevPAR can be caused by an increase (or decrease) in the applied rates (ADR) or by an increase (or decrease) in the occupancy rate. We must take into account that this equality is not precise, since the occupancy rate per room is calculated according to the Hotel Occupancy Survey's (HOS) criteria and doesn't entirely correspond with ADR or RevPAR estimates, due to methodological reasons.

You can get more information about these statistics in the methodology.
