The association’s report does not indicate the base number of guest rooms used to calculate its monthly room rate and occupancy data. Currently the association has in aggregate, 27 five-star hotels, 12 four-star hotels, and 7 three-star hotels as members.
The average room rate calculated in aggregate across the five-star, four-star and three-star categories in February was MOP1,544.9, a 28.4 percent year-on-year increase, according to the report.
