Hotels: RevPAR up almost 50% since 2009
Revenue per available room (RevPAR) is now at $85.50. In May 2009, RevPAR had fallen to $58.39. So, RevPAR is up 46.9% over the last 6 years - and the occupancy rate will probably be at a new record high this year. A great year for hotels!

The red line is for 2015, dashed orange is 2014, blue is the median, and black is for 2009 - the worst year since the Great Depression for hotels. Purple is for 2000.
The 4-week average of the occupancy rate is solidly above the median for 2000-2007, and solidly above last year.
Right now 2015 is even above 2000 (best year for hotels) - and 2015 will probably be the best year on record for hotels.
