The latest hotel booking data from STR (Smith Travel Research) reveals that, for the first time in the many weeks since the COVID-19 pandemic took hold, U.S. hotel operators sold over 10 million room-nights during the week that ended May 9, 2020.
STR’s Senior Vice President of Lodging Insights, Jan Freitag, told Hotel News Now that these numbers demonstrate an uptick of more than three million room-nights over the week of April 11. While recovery indications may be coming slowly, Freitag says that this is a good one.
