Weekly Hotel Performance Update – April 20-26, 2025

May 5, 2025 By Kailey Alegria Leave a Comment

San Diego continued to perform in line with seasonal norms during the week of April 20-26, though the composition shifted from 2024. Group and business travel stepped in to play a bigger role this year than last, implying that leisure was less of a driving force throughout the week. That said, most subregions were at or near 90% occupancy over the weekend, proving that leisure interest in San Diego is still alive and well.

  • San Diego hotels sold 337,366 room nights last week, closely mirroring figures from the same period in 2024.
  • Occupancy averaged 74.2% last week, reflecting a 0.5% year-over-year increase. San Diego ranked 6th among the top 25 U.S. markets and secured the top spot within the western competitive set, well ahead of Los Angeles (72.3%) and Phoenix (71.2%).
    • The top three U.S. markets last week were New York (86.5%), Oahu (79.8%), and Tampa (76.9%).
    • The highest-performing submarkets in terms of occupancy were Pt. Loma (78.3%), I-15 Corridor (77.1%), and UTC (76.4%).
  • ADR was $209, representing an 8.2% increase compared to the same period last year, driven higher by Group and business travel.
  • Upscale+ properties sold 57,565 GROUP room nights (+17.3% YoY), with an ADR of $306 (+8.3% YoY).
