Question 1

When should I use TRevPAB instead of TRevPAR?

Accepted Answer

Use TRevPAB if a significant portion of your inventory is sold by the bed rather than by the room. This is common in hostels, poshtels, and hotels with large family rooms or dormitories. If all your rooms are standard single or double occupancy sold as a single unit, TRevPAR is the more conventional and useful metric.

Question 2

How do I calculate 'Total Available Beds'?

Accepted Answer

For a given period, multiply the number of beds in your property by the number of days in that period. For example, a 100-bed hostel over a 30-day month has 3,000 available bed-nights.

Question 3

Can TRevPAB be used for a hotel with only private rooms?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it may be less insightful. For a standard hotel, you could calculate it by multiplying the number of rooms by the standard number of beds (e.g., 2 for a double room). However, since you sell by the room, TRevPAR is a more direct measure of your revenue-generating efficiency.
