NATIONAL REPORT—Wellness hotels are holding ground in 2025, with revenue and profit remaining steady despite inflationary pressures, according to the latest Mid-Year Wellness Real Estate Report from RLA Global in collaboration with HotStats.
The 2025 Mid-Year Wellness Real Estate Report, powered by HotStats’ benchmarking data of over 12,000 properties worldwide, highlights how diversified revenue streams and disciplined cost management are driving sustained profit margins in wellness hospitality.
“During times of slowing demand and pricing power across the hotel industry, hotels that can drive ancillary spend have the upper hand. Due to the direct and indirect connection between wellness facilities, F&B, and other ancillary revenues, it is not surprising to see hotels with major wellness outperform the other categories,” says Michael Grove, CEO, HotStats.
“As inflationary forces erode discretionary income and the visible softening of demand at lower price points, properties with robust wellness offerings are proving their strategic value in a challenging pricing environment,” says Roger Allen, Group CEO, RLA Global.
Profitability Trends: Major Wellness Still Commands a Premium
Total revenue and rate indicators held strong in H1 2025, with TRevPAR and ADR maintaining stability across wellness segments. Major Wellness hotels achieved a TRevPOR of $561, 67.5 percent higher than Minor Wellness properties at $335—demonstrating the strength of integrated wellness models in sustaining top-line and profit performance.
Luxury-tier properties remain the most lucrative, posting 84 percent higher TRevPAR and 66 percent higher RevPAR than upper-upscale peers. However, Minor Wellness hotels in both luxury and upper-upscale categories delivered stronger GOPPAR growth (+5%) versus +2.9% at Major Wellness—indicating that strategic, less complex wellness operations can yield higher profit efficiency.
