SINGAPORE, 26 May 2020: China’s hotels are starting to see the green shoots of recovery according to STR’s week hotel performance update released on Monday.
The first to suffer the impact of Covid-19 and the first to exit, hotel recovery gives the region indicators of what they can expect as they begin to exit from the pandemic’s grip.
Key highlights:
RevPAR in China is starting to recover, with midscale and economy class hotels driving that recovery.
RevPAR is expected to grow over the next week due to a variety of factors, such as general growth trends, easing of restrictions and the meeting of the Beijing National Congress.
