Tasmanian Hospitality Association Accommodation Division Hotel Occupancy Report

Commencing back in 2003, the Tasmanian Hospitality Association [THA] commenced collecting data each month from some of its members operating in the hotel accommodation sector. This data included the star rating, if the property was star rated, the number of lettable accommodation rooms on the property, the available room nights and the room nights sold. Also collected was the average room rate inclusive of GST. The Accommodation Statistics Program is a significant source of information about the state of the Tasmanian hotel accommodation industry. The information gathered is released monthly to the participating hotels and is designed to: • Provide an aggregated state and regional picture of occupancy levels and room rates in the sector; • Allow individual properties to benchmark performance against industry averages; • Identify long-term trends and issues within the industry; and • Raise the profile of the role that the accommodation sector plays in the economy through a monthly public release of aggregated information.

The new look reports which will, in the very near future, be found on the THA website, consist of a graph of a rolling average over the past three years of occupancy levels, room rate and yield.
