San Francisco —  November 13, 2025 — Duetto, , and Cloudbeds, powering hotel growth, have released their first-ever Hotel Market Pulse report, providing performance and profitability analysis for hoteliers worldwide, based on the data managed by both companies.

The analysis covers guest booking and hotel performance data from January 1 to July 31, 2025, comparing results to the same period in 2024, focusing on traveler booking behavior and hotel profitability.

Key findings from the Hotel Market Pulse report:

Traveler booking behavior shifts

• OTAs hold strong as the leading demand channel: Even so, distribution channels saw significant shifts, with Expedia pulling ahead in room night volume by nearly 12% year over year. Other OTAs, including Trip.com, Hotelbeds, and Despegar, each increased volume by more than 35%. These gains came at the expense of other OTAs, including Booking.com, Agoda, and Vrbo.
• Softening pricing power: For many operators, performance lagged expectations as pricing power softened, and demand cooled. The global average daily rate rose modestly on Booking.com and Expedia, but dropped 10% on Vrbo, 5% on Hotelbeds, and 2% on Airbnb. Adjusted for inflation, "real ADR" actually declined for many properties.
• Shorter stays: Data showed a consistent downward trend in the Average Length of Stay (ALOS) every month from January to July 2025 compared with 2024, potentially due to tighter budgets and the shift toward shorter, more frequent 'microcations'.

Hotel profitability and performance

• TRevPAR growth: Total Revenue per Available Room (TRevPAR) indicated overall performance improvement, with Latin America leading with a 4.6% increase, followed by North America (+3.5%) and Europe (+2.5%). Food and beverage (F&B) remains the clear leader and primary driver of ancillary revenue across all regions.
• GOPPAR improvement: Gross Operating Profit Per Available Room (GOPPAR) increased year over year in all regions. North America led with the biggest gain of 2.9%, followed by Latin America (+1.3%) and Europe (+1.2%).
• Labor remains the largest expense: Operating costs continue to be pressured by rising labor expenses, which remain the largest expense for hotels. North America saw labor costs increase by 4.6%, reaching 47% of total operating costs, while Europe saw a 3.9% increase, now 60% of total operating costs.

“Understanding where and how demand is shifting is critical for every hotel leader today,” said Rafael Blanes, Chief Growth Officer of Cloudbeds. “At Cloudbeds, we believe data is human — it reflects real traveler intent and behavior. This collaboration with Duetto transforms that data into contextual intelligence, helping hoteliers anticipate change, make smarter decisions, and unlock more profitable growth.”

“By combining Duetto’s data with Cloudbeds’ channel insights, we’re helping hoteliers understand how and why traveler behavior is changing, and how this impacts their bottom line,” added Jason Hofmann, Chief Customer Officer of Duetto.

This inaugural report is part of the strategic partnership's shared mission to empower hoteliers with advanced tools and insightful data for optimizing revenue and operational efficiency. To read all the findings of the report,

Toronto, ON – November 7, 2025 – Canadian hotels are on pace to exceed expectations thanks in large part to Canadians choosing to travel domestically, helping offset the drop off in U.S. tourists. While patriotism remains strong, economic weakness could soften the outlook for Canadian hotels. But soccer could save the day.

“Month-over-month and year-to-date data through July shows the pace is stronger than we had anticipated. Predominantly on Average Daily Rate (ADR) growth; less so on occupancy, which has been relatively flat,” says CBRE Hotels Senior Vice President Nicole Nguyen. “Still, the year would have shaped up very differently if Canadians hadn’t shown their national pride with domestic travel the way they have so far.”

Looking ahead the question is whether Canadians will continue to let patriotism shape their travel decisions, especially if the economy slows and disposable incomes suffer. CBRE Hotels Canada Industry 2026 Outlook notes that numerous economic challenges loom which could impact business and leisure travel demand.

“Canadians want to continue supporting the domestic industry and most are less enthusiastic about going to the U.S.,” says Nguyen. “But at some point, if the economic tap turns off, then that patriotic travel will decline as well because all travel, domestic and international, will become a luxury.”

Key Indicators to Remain Steady

CBRE is forecasting the key hotel market indicators – Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR), Average Daily Rate and Occupancy – to remain steady over the next three years.

RevPAR will stay positive in most Canadian markets in 2026; between 2% to 4% over 2025 RevPAR for most markets, returning to pre-pandemic levels. National occupancy is forecast to go no higher than 66% for 2025, 2026 and 2027, while ADR is projected to rise to $216 in 2026 and $221 in 2027.

But there are already signs that Canadians are changing spending and travel habits to save money. Canadian domestic air passenger data is flat year over year while drive travel is up. “It means people are trying to pare back

travel budgets,” Nguyen says. “They’ll drive somewhere four hours away versus flying. People might be making decisions with austerity in mind.”

She points to a recent Conference Board of Canada survey of travel intentions which showed a growing percentage of respondents citing financial reasons as the primary reason for not taking or being unsure about taking an overnight vacation trip. “They’re concerned they can’t afford to travel.”

Limited New Supply

Canadian hotel supply growth has been running below the long run average since 2019, with new supply increasing the available room nights increasing at less than 1.0% per year between 2020 and 2024. But supply is forecast to grow by 1.5% in 2026 and by 2.1% in 2027, according to CBRE’s forecast.

“The hotel pipeline is ramping up, albeit slower than expected,” says Nguyen. “Projects are taking longer to come to market. We are consistently seeing project delays throughout the development horizon for a multitude of reasons.”

FIFA World Cup a Bright Spot

Next summer’s FIFA World Cup, with seven matches slated to be played in Vancouver and six in Toronto, will be a bright spot for Canadian tourism

Much like Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour or the Toronto International Film Festival, the FIFA World Cup should help with hotel rate compression, or what happens when high demand for rooms, driven by big events, pushes a hotel toward full occupancy, leading to stronger than normal jumps in room rates across the board.

There could also be knock-on effects for those cities and Canada more broadly. “People will be reintroduced to the idea of Canada as a destination, so from a long-term legacy growth perspective it’s positive,” Nguyen says. “They might not spend the travel dollars in 2026, but maybe they come in 2027 or 2028.”

TORONTO (November 5, 2025) – The Toronto Marriott City Centre is celebrating one of the most unforgettable stories in Blue Jays World Series history - and the unlikely piece of furniture that started it all.

Before his iconic Game 1 Grand Slam that launched the Toronto Blue Jays ahead of the LA Dodgers in the 2025 World Series, outfielder Addison Barger was – as his teammate Davis Schneider tells it - famously crashing on the sofa bed in his hotel room at the Toronto Marriott City Centre.
