U.S. RevPAR -0.3% y/y last week; Valentine's Day tailwind & strength from wealth spend in leisure-centric week. | |
|
As Truist Securities wrote, βOverall U.S. RevPAR was -0.3% y/y for the week ending 2/22/2025, per STR/CoStar, below the prior week's result of +3.4% y/y and below the trailing 10-week average of +3.1% y/y. Last week's results were impacted by Valentine's Day being in the prior week Friday (versus 2024 prior week Wednesday). Combined with the Presidents' Day holiday, last week was leisure-centric and U.S. lodging results reflected accordingly. We saw particular strength in the Luxury chain scale (RevPAR +7.2% y/y) befitting the wealth effect that per the WSJ is helping power the U.S. economy today. Las Vegas RevPAR was -21.4% y/y -- impactful to U.S. headline results. Upscale RevPAR: -1.6% y/y; Upper Midscale RevPAR: -2.6% y/y.β
