How to read it
RevPAR is the single number that tells you whether a hotel is trading well, because it moves with both how many rooms you sell and what you sell them for. A property running 90% occupancy at a weak rate and one running 60% at a strong rate can post identical RevPAR — which is exactly why the metric exists.
- Available rooms means every sellable room, including those empty — that is the whole point of the metric.
- Rooms out of order are normally excluded from availability. Rooms merely unsold are not.
- RevPAR says nothing about cost. Two hotels with identical RevPAR can have very different profit — see GOPPAR.

Frequently asked
+What is a good RevPAR?
There is no universal figure — RevPAR is only meaningful against your own history and your competitive set. A £95 RevPAR might be excellent in a regional market and poor in central London. Compare it to your comp set using RevPAR index rather than to an absolute benchmark.
+Is RevPAR the same as room revenue?
No. Room revenue is the total money taken. RevPAR divides that by every available room night, including unsold ones, which makes it comparable between hotels of different sizes and between periods of different lengths.
+Should I raise rate or occupancy to grow RevPAR?
Rate, almost always. Selling an extra room carries cleaning, amenity and utility cost; charging £10 more for a room you were already selling carries almost none. Equal RevPAR growth from rate is worth more profit than the same growth from occupancy.
