Strength in Numbers: The Importance of Being a Great Brand Partner

By Travis Murray, President, McNeill Hotel Company
Even though the United States boasts numerous exceptional independent hotels, approximately two-thirds of the country's 60,000 hotels are still associated with a brand. Additionally, the number of rooms being constructed for unaffiliated hotels was only around 30,000 at the end of last year, which is significantly lower than the 131,000 rooms being built for branded and franchised properties.
There are many compelling reasons for the predominance of branded properties, both in the United States and globally, some of which will be considered in this column. Click to learn more.

Revenue Managers Question the Value of Group Business

NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Group travel demand has been on a steady path toward recovery over the past few years, but hotel revenue-management experts are starting to see some softness in performance, leading to some concerns about the future of the segment. In a round table hosted at the Hotel Data Conference, Jennifer Driscoll, vice president of revenue management at McNeill Hotel Company, said there have been fewer group booking leads recently, and to make matters even more strenuous for hotels, the expectations are rising.
“They’re starting to get much more aggressive with their asks. The rebates, the commissions, the concessions — all that kind of stuff is getting back to pre-pandemic, which then doesn’t help the bottom line,” she said. “You get a little bit of softness in the group leads that are coming, but now it’s going to be more costly for you to bring that business into the hotel.”
