In addition to higher occupancy and RevPAR levels, ADR was the highest for any month since February 2020. While year-over-year percentage changes show significant increases because of comparison with a pandemic-affected period in 2020, the country’s performance levels remained below the pre-pandemic comparable of June 2019: occupancy (-9.8%), ADR (-4.0%) and RevPAR (-13.4%). To track recovery on a weekly basis, STR has launched a Market Recovery Monitor to index performance against the 2019 benchmark.
Among the Top 25 Markets, Tampa experienced the highest occupancy level (76.2%), which was a 3.2% increase over the market’s benchmark from 2019.

Oahu Island recorded the highest ADR (US$227.22) and RevPAR (US$171.40).
