UK Chain Hotels Market Review - January 2011

London Experiences Slow Down in Growth - High-End Hotels Star Performers

In January, whilst London hotels showed a Rooms Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) increase of 3.3%, Gross Operating Profit per Available Room (GOPPAR) remained stable according to the January 2011 figures in the latest HotStats survey from TRI Hospitality Consulting.

"After the strong bounce-back in 2010, it was almost inevitable that London hotels’ profit performance would be subdued in what is usually a tough trading month for hotels. It will be interesting to see if this continues throughout the year on the back of an excellent 2010 in London,” said Jonathan Langston, managing director, TRI Hospitality Consulting.
