Management
The Manhattan hotel market is the beneficiary of surging demand,
diminished inventory, the weak dollar, and a positive economy.
It is the era of exuberance as measured by rates, occupancy,
and profits.

Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism and Sports Management

A review of the previous tables reveals the following.
-
The Downtown neighborhood experienced the
most rapid supply growth between 1999 and 2005 at roundly 5.6%,
while the Midtown West neighborhood experienced some growth
and the Midtown East neighborhood decreased slightly during
the same period.
-
All of the neighborhoods were negatively
affected by the events of 9/11 as well as the adverse economic
climate in 2001. Nevertheless, all neighborhoods have shown
resilience in 2002 and 2003, recording slight to moderate increases
in occupancies, with the exception of the Midtown West neighborhood,
which recorded a slight decrease in occupancy in 2002.
-
In 2005, all of the neighborhoods recorded
significant growth in their respective occupancies, with all
neighborhoods exceeding their 2000 occupancy levels. The strong
growth in occupancy was coupled with double-digit growth in
average rates in all of the neighborhoods, which resulted in
double-digit RevPAR growth in all neighborhoods, ranging from
a low of roundly 17.9% in the Midtown West neighborhood to a
high of roundly 24.5% in the Midtown East neighborhood.
