The occupancy rate increased from 76% in Q3 2022 to 85.9% in Q3 2023.

H World CEO Jin Hui said: “We continue to outperform the China lodging industry, delivering robust operational results. We are pleased to report another quarter of strong RevPAR recovery in China, supported by China’s summer holiday travel season as well as continuous business travel recovery.

“For our Legacy-Huazhu business, RevPAR in Q3 2023 recovered to 129% of the Q3 2019 level. While the RevPAR growth continued to be primarily driven by ADR growth, occupancy recovery also improved sequentially this quarter. Our ADR growth reflected a combination of product mix change and product upgrades, which should continue to support our ADR in the future.”
