Market History and Forecast for Downtown Chicago

1920’s Chicago had as many rooms as it does now, though many closed by the 1960’s. From then, new hotels were built, pushing up rates.

What’s Changed? • Chicago itself is doing as well as it ever has in occupancy. Rate is getting better. • The Metropolitan area is huge. • There are over 109,000 rooms in the metro area. Chicago CBD has 39,000. • Historically, Chicago sent over 500,000 rooms into the suburbs per year, or around 120 days. • Now it’s less than 100,000, or 10-20 days.

Changes in the Traveler • People now stay where they want to. – Corporations are more flexible – There are way more rooms to choose from – The consumer is more informed • Thanks primarily to the internet • There are more travelers – Convention has stayed the same, but they’re a smaller percent (used to be 60%, now 45%). People don’t always stay in the HQ hotel anymore. – Leisure is a larger percentage (used to be 10% or less, now it’s 15% and growing)
