U.S. weekly hotel occupancy eclipsed 50% for the first time in more than a month, but the index to 2019 dipped from the week prior, according to STR‘s latest data through 5 February.

Jan. 30 through Feb. 5, 2022 (percentage change from comparable week in 2019*):

  • Occupancy: 50.4% (-15.8%)
  • Average daily rate (ADR): $125.06 (-1.2%)
  • Revenue per available room (RevPAR): $63.05 (-16.8%)

While none of the Top 25 Markets recorded an occupancy increase over 2019, Norfolk/Virginia Beach came closest to its pre-pandemic comparable (-0.6% to 47.3%).

San Francisco/San Mateo experienced the largest occupancy decrease from 2019 (-52.1% to 38.4%).

Miami posted the highest ADR increase over 2019 (+16.6% to $285.03).

The steepest RevPAR deficits were in San Francisco/San Mateo (-71.3% to $58.98) and Washington, D.C. (-48.3% to $43.58).

*Due to the pandemic impact, STR is measuring recovery against comparable time periods from 2019.
