According to the American Hotel & Lodging Association’s 2023 State of the Hotel Industry Report, the hospitality industry isn’t merely recovering—it’s flourishing. And in many cases, hotels and other establishments are set to perform better than they did even before the pandemic.

Some promising statistics the report mentions are:

$197.48 billion in revenue
Average nightly occupancy of 1.3 billion
Average occupancy of 63.8%

Plus, the industry is expected to provide employment to over two million people in 2023.

And because we believe that the best workplaces are about work and play, we’ve recently invested more than $120,000 to transform 4,000 square feet of our property into three unique employee-only rooms where our team members can relax, recreate, and catch up on their favorite TV series during break time. The rooms include:

“Energize” quiet room – Comfy chairs and a peaceful ambiance combine to provide a restorative zone of rest and relaxation where you can recharge your batteries on your break.
“Explore” TV room – Theater-style seating and quality projection screens let you kick back with your teammates and enjoy streaming series and other broadcast events.
“Engage” game room – There’s nothing wrong with a little friendly competition between co-workers. From billiards and basketball to ping-pong, chess, and other table games, our game room offers a fun distraction during breaks.
