Report: Extended-stay hotels post record gains in October

OCTOBER WAS A strong month for the extended-stay segment, though the hotels lagged behind the overall hotel industry in occupancy, ADR and RevPAR gains,
according to The Highland Group. Demand growth was the highest since March 2022, occupancy saw its largest increase in 21 months, RevPAR grew the most since
June 2023, and room revenue growth was the strongest in 18 months.

“October was a very good month for extended-stay hotels with four record-high performance metrics compared to the last 30 months,” said Mark Skinner, partner
at The Highland Group.

Extended-stay room supply grew 3.1 percent in October, exceeding the average monthly increase over the past two years, The Highland Group reported. This rise
partly reflects the addition of Water Walk by Wyndham, a mid-price extended-stay brand included in the database since May 2024 after affiliating with Wyndham.
