Hotel Momentum India – Quarterly Hospitality Monitor Q3 2024 from JLL :: Hospitality Trends

The hospitality sector continued to witness Year-on-Year (YoY) growth in performance in Q3 2024 (July – September 2024), primarily driven by a rise in Average Daily Rate (ADR), resulting in a RevPAR growth of 10.8%. In terms of quarterly growth, the sector continued to mark its ascendancy, registering a positive RevPAR growth of 2% Q-o-Q in Q3 2024, compared to Q2 2024. This can be attributed to the typical nature of the third quarter of the year witnessing higher corporate travel as compared to the second quarter.

Apart from a slight decrease in the average daily rate (ADR) of Delhi and Goa, all other major markets (Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, and Mumbai) showed considerable growth in ADR and revenue per available room figures, with Hyderabad leading the list. Although occupancy levels remained relatively stable across the board in Q3 2024 compared to Q3 2023, ADR levels improved, leading to an increase in RevPAR across all major markets.

The upcoming quarter is anticipated to benefit from the continued resurgence of corporate travel, festivals, and other corporate and social Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE). The industry’s strong momentum and sustained domestic demand for business travel, as well as corporate and social MICE events, will drive a busy season.

In Q3 2024, there were 96 branded hotel signings comprising 10,686 rooms. Furthermore, 12 hotels signed were conversions of other hotels, accounting for 11% of the inventory signed in Q3 2024. Branded hotel openings comprised 30 hotels with 1,198 keys, of which approximately 80% of the total number of keys were located in Tier II and III cities, including Tirupati, Udaipur, Ranchi, and Mussoorie to name a few.
