LONDON – Moscow's hotel industry is projected to see growth in the range of 20% and 30% in revenue per available room (RevPAR) during June and July 2018, according to the latest market forecast from In Rio de Janeiro in 2014, occupancy rose by double-digits from the previous June (+12.6% to 81.6%) and July (+18.3% to 80.0%) in the market. At the same time, ADR increased 72.8% and 64.4% during the two months, respectively, driving RevPAR increases of 94.5%.

In Johannesburg in 2010, occupancy jumped from the previous June (+27.7% to 78.5%) and grew to a lesser degree in July (+7.4% to 63.7%). ADR increased 56.3% and 44.5% during the two months, respectively, driving RevPAR increases of 99.6% and 55.1%.

Moscow's room count is substantially higher than Rio and Johannesburg. That also creates less opportunity for substantial uplift in performance in percentage terms from a comparable number of additional visitors travelling for the tournament.

Through the first four months of 2018, Moscow saw occupancy grow 6.7% year over year to an absolute level of 65.8%. Using the same four-month year-over-year comparison, ADR was down 0.8% to RUB5,363.70. Preliminary data for May showed occupancy 74.8% (+11.5%) and ADR RUB5,451.5 (+3.1%).
