U.S. hotel profitability increased from the previous month on a per-available-room basis but was down when indexed to 2019, according to STR‘s October 2021 monthly P&L data release.

All of the key profitability metrics increased from September as October is historically a higher revenue month.

  • GOPPAR: US$62.75
  • TRevPAR: US$165.03
  • EBITDA PAR: US$44.14
  • LPAR (Labor Costs): US$52.17
