Hotels do not interpret margin like a simple product business. Occupancy can rise while profitability falls if discounted rooms bring higher housekeeping cost, OTA commission, breakfast cost, utilities, or staffing pressure.
Use this page to model a first-pass hotel margin view before changing rates, accepting group business, or adding amenities. The output is most useful when read next to ADR, occupancy, RevPAR, and channel mix.
Gross margin compares revenue with direct room or service costs. Net margin subtracts payroll, utilities, maintenance, property software, commissions, and other operating expenses.
A hotel posts $240,000 in room and ancillary revenue, $72,000 in direct guest costs, and $132,000 in payroll, utilities, maintenance, software, and commissions.
The result should be read with occupancy and ADR. A good gross margin can still hide weak net margin if occupancy came through expensive channels or required heavy labor coverage.
Yes. Treat OTA commissions as a cost of acquiring that room night so direct and third-party bookings can be compared honestly.
No. RevPAR helps explain revenue productivity, but margin also depends on channel mix, labor, guest costs, utilities, and fixed overhead.
Use the discounted revenue and add any incremental event, breakfast, housekeeping, and staffing costs tied to the group.
Model food and beverage margin when hotel dining is material.
Check labor cost before changing schedules or coverage.
Review payback before investing in rooms, amenities, or equipment.
Focuses on food cost, labor scheduling, delivery platform fees, waste, rent, and the difference between menu-level and month-level margin.
Frames margin around billable technician time, parts markup, dispatch efficiency, emergency premiums, callbacks, and truck-level overhead.
