U.S. hotel commentary - October 2023
Year-over-year growth in RevPAR softened to +1.2% after coming in at +3% a month prior. Demand dropped 1.2%, which was the largest decrease since April. Like April, a calendar shift was largely responsible for the fall. Compared to last year, this October included one less Saturday (from five last year to four this year) and the gain of Halloween Tuesday.
