This was still 21 per cent down compared with pre-Covid levels, however. 

The growth was particularly strong in the US during the summer holidays, with some hotels exceeding 2019 levels for occupancy levels. 

But the UK saw revenues per available room down 22 per cent on 2019, and the rest of Europe was off by 48 per cent.
