The beginning of summer saw the French hotel industry continuing to post solid growth, with luxury hotels recording the best results. The large-scale events, the Paris Air Show and Vinexpo, rendered June a great month for hotels in Paris and Bordeaux, notably. The midscale segment posted more moderate – although satisfactory – results. In comparison with June 2010, a number of destinations (including Bordeaux, Cannes and Nancy) stood out, recording double digit RevPAR growth. Overall, the progressive return to an upswing in the hotel cycle can be confirmed by June's good performances. As usual, budget hotels posted more modest results, although growth was regular. However, is this growth likely to slow down due to July's unfavourable weather conditions?
