Framework

Is declining occupancy the primary driver of the RevPAR shortfall?

Is corporate transient demand weakening across key accounts?

Business transient room nights down 22% YoY; 8 of 16 negotiated corporate accounts reduced commitments by 30%+

Average length of stay: 1.9 nights (down from 2.4); mid-week occupancy 51% (bench: 68%) — video-conferencing substitution accelerating

Is leisure demand softening or being captured by competitors?

Leisure occupancy: 68% (down from 78%); weekend RevPAR index vs comp set: 88 (down from 101) — losing fair share

OTA bookings rose to 38% of room nights (up from 29%); OTA commission cost: $12/room/night margin drag

Is rate architecture and channel mix eroding net RevPAR despite stable headline ADR?

Is the competitive set outperforming on rate and share?

RevPAR index vs competitive set: 91 (down from 103 two years ago) — losing 12 points of market fair share

Last-room-available pricing triggered on 31 days vs 18 days prior year — demand ceiling being hit earlier, indicating rate ceiling too high vs demand

Is loyalty channel erosion driving higher-cost bookings?

Loyalty program bookings: 31% of room nights (bench: 42%); direct bookings declined 19% — shifting to costlier OTA channel
