London: Ash Cloud aftermath | STR Reports

The lingering memory for travellers caught up in the airport closures earlier this spring because of the eruption of the Icelandic volcano, Eyjafjallajokull, will be of days wasted at airports or meetings and holidays cancelled. For hoteliers in London and the city’s two major airports, Heathrow and Gatwick, the closures had no significant effect on the long-term trend toward growth in revenue per available room (RevPAR), according to data from STR Global, the leading provider of market information to the global hotel industry. See the trend lines in the graph below.

French Hotel Industry Performances - April 2010 | A cloud hangs over recovery

Last month’s warning unfortunately became reality: April did not mark the end of the recession and March’s sunny spell didn’t last long. Rooms revenue stagnated in the 3 and 4 star sectors and deteriorated somewhat in the 2 star category. These results were all the more disappointing when considered against 2009 – a year where RevPAR dropped sharply. The budget sector (0 and 1 star) continued to stand out from the crowd, with an overall growth in activity. Only those hotels located in Ile-de-France experienced a decline in occupancy (-3%).

UK Chain Hotels Market Review - April 2010 | TRI Hospitality

Following five months of consecutive year-on-year profitability growth, international travel disruption caused by the Eyjafjallajoekull volcano ended London’s near perfect 2010 performance, according to the latest HotStats survey from TRI Hospitality Consulting. The 2.5% decline in Gross Operating Profit per Available Room (GOPPAR) was primarily led by a decline in Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) in the capital for the first time since October 2009.

France Hotel industry perfomances February 2010 | The slump continues for 2 star hotels!

In regional 2 star hotels, although average rates remained constant the category was heavily impacted by a drop in demand. A number of large cities saw 2 star hotel occupancy decline by over 10% in February. In Ile-de-France, the positive results recorded in Paris were not necessarily experienced elsewhere in the region, since most departments saw occupancy and ARR fall. Declines ranged from 5% in Essonne to over 30% in Seine-Saint-Denis.

French Hotel Industry Performances January 2010 | Deloitte

There was no miracle for the French hotel industry at the beginning of 2010 and the certain markets continued to suffer. Market drops were significant, since data were compared against January 2009 – a month already affected by the downturn. The crisis did not even spare the budget sector in January (a sector that has to date performed in spite of the slump): whilst average rates remained acceptable, occupancy dropped, resulting in RevPAR declines of 2% in the North-East and South-East and up to 6% in the South-West.

TRI Hospitality Consulting -2010 & 2011 UK Hotel Market Forecasts

“Our research indicates that there is a close relationship between movements in rooms revenue performance and total revenue performance for both UK provincial and London hotels. However, our analysis also indicates that London hoteliers have the ability to adjust fixed costs more quickly in response to changes in revenue performance, whereas provincial hotels have been less able to mitigate falls in revenue with cost reduction” said Jonathan Langston, managing director, TRI Hospitality Consulting.

Confidence amongst hotel general managers suffered a slight setback in Q1 2010 as the new year produced a mixed outlook across the UK.

French Hotel Industry Performances for December 2009 | Deloitte

It comes as no surprise that 2009 was a very bad year for the French hotel industry – even worse than 2003. As is the case during any economic crisis, 4 star hotels were the most severely impacted, business volatility being particularly pronounced in this market; the market does well during growth periods but suffers to a greater extent during economic downturns. Conversely, the decline in occupancy observed in the 0 to 2 star sectors was softened (or even offset in the budget sector) by a rise in average rates.

French Hotel Industry Performances November 2009 | Deloitte

A brighter spell for Parisian hotels. Parisian hotels picked up somewhat during November. With the exception of 3 star standard hotels, all categories recorded a rise in demand. However, it should be noted that these results are compared against November 2008 when activity had sharply declined. This trend was, unfortunately, not mirrored throughout France. Rooms revenue in the regions and on the Côte d’Azur was still in significant decline.
