Shiori Sakurai. \u201cOperators are cautious about achieving higher rates at the expense of occupancy and will often let occupancy growth lead before taking steps to push ADR.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For Japan, the greatest correlation of hotel performance metrics exists between occupancy and ADR growth. When occupancy rises, ADR will follow,&#8221; Sakurai said. &#8220;Recently, that trend has played out thanks to international borders reopening, which allowed a much-needed segment of demand back into the city and the government simultaneously subsidising domestic tourism. Tokyo was well below pre-pandemic levels in the top and bottom-line performance for much of 2022, but there has been a clear upward trend since the fourth quarter of last year. While there is still a way to go to reach recovery, recent months&#8217; developments have been encouraging.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>About STR<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Founded in 1985, STR maintains a presence in 15 countries, with a North American headquarters in Hendersonville, Tennessee, an international headquarters in London, and an Asia Pacific headquarters in Singapore.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SINGAPORE, 1 March 2023: The reopening of Japan\u2019s international border several months ago, along with the National Travel Support campaign, helped boost Tokyo\u2019s hotel average daily rate (ADR) beyond pre-pandemic comparables for two straight months, according to STR.
