Fun money saver tip: When booking hotels, try and avoid booking through third parties like Booking and Expedia. Instead if you book direct, you'll get a loyalty discount and also get points for future stays.
Consumer spending is falling, but that doesn't mean all hotels will underperform. Most spending cuts will happen at full service/luxury properties, while those still looking to travel will stay at limited service hotels on a budget.
The Winter Edition of MMGY’s Portrait of American Travelers study found nearly eight out of 10 U.S. adults plan to take a vacation within the next 12 months, a 7% increase compared to the winter of 2023. They also plan to spend more of their disposable income on travel. The survey found the average vacation budget grew to $5,051, with a travel frequency of 4.1 trips per person.
Conversion brands are taking over. Hilton is expecting Spark to be their fastest growing brand. IHG expecting Garner to follow...And now Marriott releasing City Express to the US. Industry is evolving.
Fun fact: Snow removal for commercial properties can get expensive. Hotels in the North can spend upwards of $20k a year if it's a big Snow year. Full service hotels can spend even way more than that.
Airbnb was never a threat to hotels. Airbnbs offer an unique experience whereas hotels offer consistency and ease. They are not competitors but rather different businesses. During Airbnbs rise, hotel RevPar broke record highs.
A full service hotel can have up to four times as many employees when compared to a limited service hotel. Thin margins and so much complexity makes it a difficult investment.
@roymdonnelly@MattRossmanBIP Interesting. It's actually a sign of poor management by hitting 90%+ in hotel occupancy. It means rates are too low relative to demand.
On our portfolio we'd like to hit around 65%-70%. Anything more than that our fixed costs increase higher at each room sold.
Hotel guests were polled what they wanted most out of their experience.
Their reply:
A clean and comfortable room
So many people think its about a food, having a rooftop bar, or saunas, or game rooms. Nope. Most guests just want a nice clean room.
Its common misconception that hotels are high risk investments. The downtown Marriott with 500 rooms in San Francisco with 4 bars and 3 restaurants. Sure. But the 80 room Holiday Inn Express in Austin will do just fine.
Our focus is on limited service hotels. Whats that? Simple. Its hotels where we solely focus on renting rooms. Nothing else. No restaurants. No spas. Nothing crazy. Its strong margins and fairly recession resistant.
Investors are buying properties with negative leverage.
Example:
Strip center - 6.5% cap rate purchase
Debt - 7.5% interest rate
That means some investors are willing to lose money on the hopes that future rate cuts will happen. Not very logical. Stick to strong underwriting.
Insane. Marriott bought Starwood and has a 192 million loyalty members. Hilton has a 173 million loyalty members. Hilton is expected to surpass Marriott this year and be the largest hotel loyalty program. Quite impressive.
Hotels are a great investment in an inflationary environment. The reason is that our rates can change daily and due to this ADR increases have far exceeded inflation.
