After previous recession, it took 7 quarters for demand to recover its prior peak, and 12 quarters for ADR in the US
Prior recession:
- 9.8% decline from
peak
- 7 quarters to recover
to prior peak Prior recession:
- 10.7% decline from
peak
- 12 quarters to recover
to prior peak
Full recovery in hotel demand may take twice as long as prior recession
Demand recovers its prior peak by the end of 2023, approximately 14 quarters after trough.
Recovery is tempered…but inevitable

Anatomy of a recovery
Return to “normal” levels of travel will be a multi-year effort (likely 2023)
Initial recovery
- Leisure
- Especially drive
Secondary recovery
- Essential business
- Small- and medium-size groups
- Regional international (intra-Americas, intra-Europe)
Final recovery
- Long-haul international
- Large events
Decisions must be informed by a recovery timeline and profile
Funding Safety protocol Market focus Staffing Messaging and positioning Channels Incentives Partnerships New events
Determine strategies to accelerate recovery
