Message From the President & CEO |
|
|
|
As we now turn the corner and focus on the remaining five months of the year, we continue to monitor key hotel performance indicators (a critical barometer of our visitor industry’s overall status).
As illustrated in the charts below, Hotel Demand (rooms sold) remains at or slightly above the high-water mark of 2019. That said, we’re no longer pacing significantly ahead. It appears, as one can see in the second chart, that we have leveled off a bit.
