SunTrust Robinson Humphrey reports, “Luxury (+5.5%) was the strongest chain scale for branded hotels; Upscale was the weakest at -0.5%. Upper Midscale (+1.4%) underperformed the industry average. On the low occupancy Thanksgiving week, results were largely as expected last week with U.S. branded hotels ~ +1.5%. While Group RevPAR was moderately strong at +4.7%, Upper Upscale was relatively soft at +0.8% given the holiday week and light business travel. We believe some group demand may be driven by SMERFE (non corporate) groups. Transient leisure appears to once again be the strongest segment given Luxury and Independent outperformance. Day of week RevPAR was relatively consistent most of the week (~ +2-3.5%).” For more, read the full report.

State lawmakers will vote on legislation that would give private marketing groups the power to force hotel and motel owners to pay fees for advertising. The package of bills could make it harder for hotel and motel owners to refuse to pay levies as high as 5% of their revenue to private marketing bureaus.
