The higher cost for goods is not yet wrecking traveler appetite. Despite record gas prices, ballooning airfares and crippling inflation roiling the globe, hotel performance remained widely steady, if not getting better, in April, with increases in both the top and bottom line.

In the U.S., April gross operating performance per available room (GOPPAR) hit $96.08, which was 92% back to where it was pre-pandemic.

Total revenue per available room (TRevPAR) was recorded at $226, which was still $40 off where it was pre-pandemic, April 2019.
