The U.S. hotel industry experienced varied outcomes for the week ending August 16, 2025, as reported by CoStar, a prominent provider of real estate analytics. The data revealed mostly negative year-over-year comparisons, highlighting shifts in key performance metrics.
During this period, the industry saw a slight decline in occupancy rates, down 0.9% to 66.3%. The average daily rate (ADR) showed a modest increase of 0.4%, reaching $157.51. However, revenue per available room (RevPAR) dipped by 0.5% to $104.50.
Among the Top 25 Markets, Seattle emerged as a standout performer, boasting a 7.5% increase in occupancy, reaching 83.9%, and a 10.9% rise in RevPAR to $178.62. In contrast, Houston faced significant challenges, with occupancy plummeting by 24.0% to 57.2% and RevPAR dropping 27.1% to $66.84. This downturn in Houston is attributed to the high demand period following Hurricane Beryl in 2024, which has since diminished.
These results underscore the ongoing fluctuations within the U.S. hotel industry, influenced by regional factors and broader market conditions.
