PwC: Post-election clarity and ADR increases likely to sustain hotel performance through 2025 amid modest demand growth

The US lodging sector is expected to experience muted growth in 2025, driven by moderate increase in average daily room rates and stable occupancy levels, resulting in an annual increase in revenue per available room of 1.5%. Despite stagnant supply levels over the past few quarters, new construction projects are expected to be spurred in 2025 by a combination of factors, including increasing optimism about a soft landing, easing monetary policies, and other capital markets tailwinds. However, overall impacts from the macroeconomic environment are expected to continue to suppress demand and occupancy growth in 2025.

Second, Christmas and New Year’s Day move from a Monday last year to a Wednesday this year.

U.S. hotel commentary - September 2024

CBRE Hotel Brand Performance 2024 Report: Navigating Slower RevPAR Growth to Make Strategic Brand Selections

Slowing RevPAR growth and maturation of the U.S. hotel industry are driving brand proliferation to attract new customers. The average number of brands per brand family tracked by CBRE increased to 25 in 2023 from 13 in 2013. RevPAR growth fell to 1.5% between 2018 and 2023 from 3% between 2013 and 2018. Given that year-to-date 2024 RevPAR growth is lower than it was a year ago, we believe this slowdown is more reflective of increasing competition from alternative lodging sources rather than a lagging pandemic recovery. To maximize profits, owners and developers must pick an attractive chain scale and an outperforming brand. Selecting a brand that outperforms the average has become increasingly difficult. Only 30% of brands delivered above-average RevPAR growth over the past five years, down from the 52% of brands with above-average RevPAR from 2013 to 2018.
