The Detroit hotel market continued an upward trajectory in 2022 following a strong 2021. As illustrated below, RevPAR growth was driven by increasing average rates, with ADR exceeding pre-pandemic levels. Strong ADR levels were driven by Detroit’s tourism industry, which has shown the greatest recovery following the severe downturn in 2020 and early 2021. Visit Detroit reports that visitation numbers since the second quarter of 2022 have approached the pre-pandemic levels of 2019. However, occupancy growth has lagged the average for the U.S. and other top 25 markets in the Midwest, such as Indianapolis, Chicago, and St. Louis. This trend is primarily due to a slower recovery within the commercial segment, as workers have yet to return to offices in full force and international travel remains low.
