San Diego benefits from a diverse mix of demand generators, including local corporations, government entities, meeting and group business, and leisure-related activity. Favorable year-round weather conditions and attractions such as the San Diego Zoo, Coronado Island, Pacific Beach, SeaWorld, La Jolla, and the nearby Temecula Wine Valley generate steady tourism demand. Furthermore, compression from large conventions held at the San Diego Convention Center (SDCC) produces a significant number of room nights. Over the last two decades, San Diego achieved occupancy levels in the mid-70.0% range during stable and strong economic periods. Following the pandemic, San Diego was among the first West Coast markets to recover, benefiting from strong leisure demand and group bookings. By year-end 2024, occupancy was holding steady in the mid-70s, with ADR having reached a record level at nearly $213 (rounded). Some occupancy softening has been registered thus far in 2025, but occupancy remains nevertheless strong and is supporting healthy ADR growth. The May 2025 opening of the 1,600-room Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center in Chula Vista has brought much attention to this market; significant Gaylord-loyal convention demand is anticipated to be captured by this new mega resort.
* Although the HVI cannot tell you what a particular hotel is worth, it does provide excellent “big picture” data, indicating which market areas are experiencing positive trends, and thus may present good investment opportunities. The HVI for the U.S. is a measure of the strength of the lodging industry as a whole and, specifically, the hospitality investment market. The HVI for the various identified markets can provide a basis to evaluate and compare different geographic regions. For more insight on the limitations and applicability of the HVI, please read the message on the HVI home page by clicking on the graphic at the top of this page.
The widespread impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) has had an unprecedented impact on hotels and hotel values worldwide.
Consequently, the latest HVI analysis may no longer reflect the most current measure of lodging industry strength or the
hospitality investment market.
In each of our offices across the globe, we are working tirelessly to analyze the impact of recent events and provide timely
insights to help you navigate these uncharted waters. Because it is unclear how long the pandemic will last or how long related
restrictions will be in place, we are updating our analyses on a weekly basis using the most current data.
Additionally, examination of value trends in prior cycles can provide useful information. Historical patterns, together with
an understanding of the market’s current expectations for the eventual recovery of the industry and its performance, can provide
insights on the likely trajectory of decline and recovery for hotel values.
