Customers per room
Almost all calculations are made base on the occupancy rate: this is the number of the rooms occupied in a certain period. In any room there are two beds, so the number of guests or customers is more than the number of occupied rooms.
- on an average, there are 1.7 guests staying in a room during the weekends (mostly leisure guest)
- on an average, during the weekdays this is just one guest.
So 25 rooms occupied during the weekends in a year means 25 x 3/7 x 365 = 3,910 rooms occupied in a year. Per room 1.7 guest so 6,648 guest nights. For the weekdays the number of guest in a room is 1.0. So at an occupancy rate of 60% there is 60% x 4/7 x 365 x 100 = 12,514 rooms occupied, each with just one person. Which also means 12,514 guests and guest nights. Of course, one guest can also stay longer than one night, a bit more on this in the file bookings.
Guest nights
The last numbers of the hotel show 50% occupancy rate in the weekends: so out of the possible 15,600 room nights 7,826 room night are sold. So an occupancy rate of the rooms of 50%. This will bring the number of guest nights at this moment at 7,826 x 1,7 = 13,304. So on an average in the last recorded year 13,304 guest nights have been recorded.
Total guest night
- weekends days 13,304 guest nights: 56% of all guest nights
- weekdays 10,374 guest nights: 44% of all guest nights
- Total 23,678 guest nights: 100%
Most guest are leisure guests.
