Year to date, occupancy was down 0.7 percent to 58.4 percent.
Revenue per available room (RevPar), a key industry gauge that measures how much money hotels are bringing in per available room, jumped 6.6 percent to $111.75 this July in the Mohawk Valley’s biggest county versus July 2023. Through the first seven months of this year, RevPar has increased 5.6 percent to $80.86.
