Luxury hotels and Resorts are considered to have the best outlook, with 89% and 86% of surveyed operators being optimistic or very optimistic about these two hotel types, respectively.

CONTRACT TERMS TRENDS

53% of surveyed operators report an increasing trend of Pandemic Clause in their new contracts and renewals in the last 12 months. ESG KPIs Reporting Clause is also being increasingly included in contracts according to 50% of surveyed operators.

WILLINGNESS TO OFFER LEASE

Since last year, hybrid and variable leases have been increasingly offered by 35% and 28% of the surveyed operators, respectively. On the other hand, 19% of surveyed operators are offering fewer or have stopped offering fixed leases.
