2020 will go down as the most difficult year on record for the global hotel industry—until the next one. Which is to say that there is an inevitability of something beyond anyone’s control impacting travel and hospitality, testing its resiliency.
COVID-19 was the black swan event the hotel industry often alludes to and hopes to perpetually avoid. In an act of defiance, 2020 went rogue. The start of the new decade was one to forget and remember. Antithetical, sure, but a reminder that preparedness is about lessons learned through difficulty. And if ever there was a year of upheaval, it was 2020.
Each year, HotStats produces "Profit Matters," a global review of the trends and data points that drove the hotel industry. As the data and storylines prove, the hotel industry has its work cut out for it, but is already seeing some green shoots, especially as global vaccine distribution accelerates.
