U.S. Luxury Hotel Industry Sees Rates Soar to New Heights

July 11, 2024

Financial Management

With the pandemic fading in the rear-view mirror, luxury hotel operators in the U.S. are now refocusing on revenues and profitability. Room demand for luxury hotels has recovered well, and the industry is now selling almost 30 million room nights annually, more than ever before.

Effects of the Covid-19 disruption, however, are evident. Expected demand numbers based on pre-pandemic growth rates still have not been achieved.

He realized Eleven Madison Park had not yet pursued anything to set itself apart, while earlier winners were unreasonable in their pursuit of product and innovation.
