News The European hotel industry had a positive month of September with growth recorded in all key metrics. If compared to September 2014, hotels in Europe managed to increase their occupancy by 2.3% to 80.7%, average daily rate added 5.4% to the average of 123.55 euro, and, finally, revenue per available room (RevPAR) grew by 7.8% to 99.76 euro.

If analyze by countries, hotels in Italy were among best performers. They managed to increase their occupancy by 9.7% to 83.0%, and a double digit growth of ADR (+13.1% to 162.86 euro in total) helped RevPAR reach fantastic growth of 24.1% (135.13 euro).
