Lodge Model Efficiency 2024 Â Â Â
RevPAR development fell to 1.5% between 2018 and 2023 from 3% between 2013 and 2018. On condition that year-to-date 2024 RevPAR development is decrease than it was a 12 months in the past, this slowdown is extra reflective of accelerating competitors from various lodging sources slightly than a lagging pandemic restoration.
Govt Abstract
- Slowing RevPAR development and maturation of the U.S. resort business are driving model proliferation to draw new clients. The common variety of manufacturers per model household tracked by CBRE elevated to 25 in 2023 from 13 in 2013.
- RevPAR development fell to 1.5% between 2018 and 2023 from 3% between 2013 and 2018. On condition that year-to-date 2024 RevPAR development is decrease than it was a 12 months in the past, we imagine this slowdown is extra reflective of accelerating competitors from various lodging sources slightly than a lagging pandemic restoration.
- To maximise earnings, homeowners and builders should decide a lovely chain scale and an outperforming model. Deciding on a model that outperforms the typical has grow to be more and more troublesome. Solely 30% of manufacturers delivered above-average RevPAR development over the previous 5 years, down from the 52% of manufacturers with above-average RevPAR from 2013 to 2018.
- A series scale doesn’t decide RevPAR efficiency; there’s a variety of efficiency amongst manufacturers. Over the previous 5 years, the top-performing manufacturers outperformed their lagging chain scale counterparts by as a lot as 79%. Assuming a flow-through a number of of 1.5x to 2.0x from revenues to GOP, this suggests as much as 160percentincremental revenue efficiency.
- Between 2013 and 2023, solely 26% of the same-store manufacturers on this evaluation generated RevPAR development above inflation. Between 2018 and 2023, largely as a result of excessive inflation ranges starting in 2021, solely 3% of those manufacturers boasted RevPAR above inflation. Even when inflation had remained under 2% over the previous 5 years, 70% of those manufacturers would nonetheless have lagged inflation with a median RevPAR development of simply 1.3%.
- Higher-midscale chains have been the perfect performers over each five-year durations examined. Free breakfast, robust model recognition, no resort charges and the power to draw visitors who commerce each up and down have elevated the attraction of select-service motels.
Model Development & Advantages
The six giant model households tracked by CBRE for this report elevated their variety of manufacturers to 25 from 13 between 2013 and 2023, leading to a compound annual development price of seven%.
The advantages of brand name affiliations for resort builders and homeowners embody favorable administration agreements, mezzanine financing, price efficiencies via bulk provider contracts, key cash and entry to a rising variety of loyalty members. All of those may also help help occupancy and decrease buyer acquisition prices.
Slower RevPAR Development
Regardless of a return to pre-pandemic ranges for many manufacturers, total RevPAR development has slowed over the previous 5 years because the resort business matured and types proliferated. For this report, we analyzed key efficiency indicators of fifty resort manufacturers for annually between 2013 and 2023.
Evaluating the 5 years from 2013 to 2018 with the newest five-year interval (2018 to 2023), RevPAR development fell by half to 1.5% from 3.0%. Whereas among the slowdown could possibly be an indication of the business’s maturation, aggressive encroachment from short-term leases might additionally clarify among the deceleration. Quick-term leases’ share of whole room nights has greater than doubled since 2018 to over 16%, limiting common day by day price (ADR) and occupancy development for motels.
Fewer manufacturers are protecting tempo with the general common RevPAR efficiency, with simply 30% exceeding the typical over the previous 5 years. Seventy p.c underperformed the typical in contrast with simply 48% within the earlier five-year interval.

Between 2013 and 2023, solely 26% of the same-store manufacturers on this evaluation generated RevPAR development above inflation. Between 2018 and 2023, that fell to simply 3% of manufacturers as a result of historic ranges of inflation. Even when inflation had remained under 2% over the previous 5 years, 70% of manufacturers would nonetheless have lagged inflation with common RevPAR development of simply 1.3%.

When evaluating the 2 five-year durations, luxurious was the one chain scale with accelerating RevPAR development (1.6% vs. 1.3%). Luxurious additionally was the one chain scale with larger room development between the 2 five-year durations (2.4% vs. 1.7%), which could possibly be contributing to stronger top-line development as extra properties stabilize post-opening.
RevPAR development for upper-upscale chains dropped to 0.6% between 2018 and 2023 from 2.6% between 2013 and 2018. The sluggish restoration of enterprise transient journey and stagnant tempo of return to workplace could have contributed to the deceleration in development.
Higher-midscale chains have been the perfect performers over each five-year durations. Free breakfast, robust model recognition, the dearth of resort charges and the power to seize visitors who each commerce up and commerce down have elevated the attraction of select-service motels. For upper-midscale chains, though development slowed to 2.1% between 2018 and 2023 from 3.9% between 2013 and 2018, RevPAR development for this chain scale nonetheless outperformed the same-store pattern over all durations.
For the 19 upper-midscale and upscale manufacturers we tracked, upper-midscale outpaced upscale RevPAR development by 140 foundation factors yearly over the previous 5 years. The RevPAR premium for upscale chains relative to upper-midscale chains fell by 24% to $17 in 2023 from $22 in 2018. The outperformance might end result from variations within the power of the manufacturers in every class or the attractiveness of the lower cost level to visitors.
RevPAR for the upper-midscale chains has additionally strengthened relative to midscale chains. The hole in RevPAR between the 2 chain scales widening by practically 28% since 2018, suggesting that visitors are prepared to pay the $41 premium for what they understand as incremental worth.
Over the previous 5 years, midscale chains have skilled minimal room development from legacy manufacturers as elevated financing and building prices hampered the profitability of latest building. RevPAR fell by 0.1% between 2018 and 2023, in contrast with the two.6% development within the earlier 5 years. These legacy manufacturers could have been hindered by the launch of newer midscale manufacturers.
Economic system chain RevPAR development price fell to 1.0% between 2018 and 2023 from 1.9% between 2013 and 2018. The RevPAR efficiency is probably going buoyed by the survivorship bias created by the numerous contraction within the variety of rooms over the past 5 years down 10.8% in whole. This contraction in rooms could have been brought on by the pandemic or conversion to various makes use of, given the 2023 RevPAR for our financial system chain scale information set was solely $35.
Selecting the Proper Model
Choosing the proper model inside every chain scale can have sizable monetary penalties. For instance, the distinction in annual RevPAR development between the strongest and weakest upper-midscale manufacturers over the previous 5 years was 5.2 share factors, leading to a virtually 39% or $63 cumulative outperformance for the top-performing model.
The cumulative premiums of the posh and upscale chains have been even larger at 79% and 74%, respectively. Nevertheless, this outperformance can’t be attributed to a distinction in RevPAR ranges, because the RevPAR hole between the strongest and weakest manufacturers was $3 for luxurious chains and $11 for upscale chains.
Over 10 years, the efficiency hole amongst upper-midscale, upscale and luxurious manufacturers is narrower, indicating that the distinction in efficiency between the weakest and strongest manufacturers has widened over the previous 5 years.

Prolonged-Keep & Restricted-Service Outperform Full-Service Manufacturers
Prolonged-stay has been a preferred section amongst resort builders since 2013, rising room depend by 6.1%—practically thrice the pattern common development price. Whereas extended-stay RevPAR development fell to 2.1% between 2018 and 2023 from 3.9% between 2013 and 2018, it remained larger than the same-store development price of all manufacturers. House owners and builders seem to more and more favor extended-stay over limited-service motels due to decrease prices, regardless of the same RevPAR development price for each segments.
Restricted-service manufacturers have constantly crushed full-service for RevPAR development over each comparability durations. Prior to now 5 years, RevPAR development for the limited-service manufacturers was 4 occasions that of the full-service group.
Full-service city motels underperformed the general group common, with RevPAR development falling to 0.5% between 2018 and 2023 from 2.2% through the earlier 5 years. With the sluggish restoration of enterprise transient journey and workplace attendance, full-service motels have been the final section to recuperate to pre-pandemic ranges. One-third of the manufacturers on this section haven’t but returned to 2019 ranges, in step with broader tendencies within the same-store group.

Earlier than affiliating with a resort model, consideration should be given to the efficiency and repute of all different manufacturers throughout the chosen model household. Ranked by RevPAR development, the highest three model households have been the identical for each five-year durations.
RevPAR development charges have lately slowed for all model households. The change in the usual deviation inside model household RevPAR development was blended when evaluating the 2 five-year durations. The higher the usual deviation in model efficiency inside one household, the much less probably it’s that the model will carry out at or above the typical.
Determine 6: RevPAR Development by Model
Supply: Alternative, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG Motels & Resorts, Marriott, Wyndham public filings.
Over the previous 10 years, the strongest-performing model household had RevPAR development of two.7% vs. 0.3% for the weakest-performing model household. On a cumulative foundation, the strongest model household outperformed by practically 27% between 2013 and 2023. Since these two model households had RevPAR lower than $6 aside, we’d not attribute the RevPAR development distinction to a variance in chain scale.
Model efficiency will not be the one metric that an proprietor ought to think about when choosing a model. Others embody a model’s contribution to occupancy, charges, the power of a model household’s loyalty program and the efficiency of the opposite manufacturers within the model household. Nevertheless, slight variances in RevPAR efficiency can have an outsized impression on returns over the lifetime of an asset.
