In year-over-year measurements, the Asia/Pacific regions occupancy rose 14.5 percent to 63.9 percent, average daily rate increased 10.8 percent to US$121.83, and revenue per available room jumped 27.0 percent to US$77.83.
Hotels in the Asia/Pacific region experienced increases in all three key performance metrics for June 2010 when reported in U.S. dollars, according to data compiled by STR Global.
In year-over-year measurements, the Asia/Pacific region’s occupancy rose 14.5 percent to 63.9 percent, average daily rate increased 10.8 percent to US$121.83, and revenue per available room jumped 27.0 percent to US$77.83.
“The year-to-date demand (occupied rooms) was unsurprisingly up on year-to-date 2009 (+16 percent), but also was up on year-to-date 2008 (+2 percent) and just up on pre-crisis levels of the first six months of 2007 (+0.4 percent). With an overall steady increase of new supply, the recovered demand creates a solid base for the region to continue its RevPAR recovery for the rest of the year”.
