February 2016 – Further
growth in Dusseldorf
Occ: 65%, ADR: €98, RevPar: €64
February in Dusseldorf was generally positive, mainly due
to the healthy room rate development. This year, the ME-
TAV trade fair took place (it is held every two years) parallel
to the EuroCIS. It provided additional revenue and was the
reason for the positive ADR forecast. Increased demand in
the events sector supported this development. The leap year
also provided the hotel industry with an extra day of poten-
tial sales.
Occ: -11.6%; ADR: +0.4%; RevPar: -11.2%
March in Dusseldorf is set for a sharp
decline (RevPar: -11%). The “Prowein” and
“Beauty” events are being held every year but the IDS
trade fair in Cologne will be absent in 2016. Last year,
this generated significant overflow business for Dussel-
dorf. In addition, this year’s school Easter holidays will
be held in March only and will so take up one more
week of the month than had been the case in 2015.
Occ: +15.9%, ADR: +44.5%, RevPar: +67.5%
On the other hand, April is expected to be
positive. Hoteliers are predicting tremend-
ous growth with RevPar up by 68 percent. It remains to
be seen as to whether this will all happen. Anyway, the
three full business weeks (this year the Easter holidays
are almost completely in March) are ensuring a high
volume of demand. The main reason is the Wire &
Tube, which takes place every two years.
Occ: -2.2%, ADR: +27.6%, RevPar: +24.8%
May will continue to be marked by strong
growth, with RevPar up by 25%. The two
days of the DRUPA trade fair will boost room rates and
are the main reason for the increase. Otherwise, the
month is practically identical to May last year.
