Manchester Hotel Market Spotlight – YE August 2025

The Manchester Hotel Market Spotlight for the 12 months ending August 2025 reports that branded full-service hotels experienced declining profits with gross operating profit per available room down 13.4%, driven by a 4.0% revenue drop despite a 0.9% increase in average daily rate, while occupancy fell 6.9% to 71.0% amid 1.6% supply growth including 888 new rooms. Gross operating profit margin contracted by 2.7 percentage points to 24.4%, reflecting insufficient cost reductions to offset lower revenues and the impact of increased supply particularly in the Midscale and Upper Upscale segments.
