Hotel revenue per available room. The RevPAR Calculator takes rooms available, rooms sold, room revenue for the night and returns revpar (revenue per available room) plus average daily rate, occupancy. Results update as you type, and the formula is shown under the result so you can repeat it in your own spreadsheet.
Hospitality runs on thin margins and high fixed costs, so food cost, labour cost and occupancy need watching weekly rather than yearly. Small pricing and portioning changes move the bottom line quickly. Use the worked example below to check the maths against your own figures.
How the RevPAR Calculator works
RevPAR combines rate and occupancy into one figure, which stops a hotel chasing occupancy with discounts that lower total revenue. Compare it night by night and against competitors.
Worked example
With the example values (rooms available of 100, rooms sold of 72, room revenue for the night of $10,800), the revpar (revenue per available room) is $108.00; average daily rate $150.00, occupancy 72%. Change any figure above and the result updates immediately; use Copy results to paste the summary into a note or email.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is revpar (revenue per available room) calculated?
RevPAR = room revenue ÷ rooms available = ADR × occupancy.
Which figures do I need?
Rooms available, rooms sold, room revenue for the night. Take them from the same period and the same set of accounts or reports so the ratio is consistent, and check the example values as a guide to the units expected.
What benchmarks should I aim for?
Food cost around 28–35% of price, prime cost (food plus labour) under 60–65% of revenue, and steady occupancy or table turns. Track them weekly.
