Indonesia's Star-Rated Hotel Occupancy Rate Increased in July 2024

The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reports that the hotel room occupancy rate (TPK) for star-rated hotels in Indonesia reached 56.36% in July 2024.

This figure is up 1.66 percentage points compared to June 2024 and up 1.72 percentage points compared to July 2023.

In July 2024, East Kalimantan had the highest national TPK for star-rated hotels, at 69.88%.

BPS Deputy for Distribution and Service Statistics, Pudji Ismartini, stated that this achievement was influenced by preparations for the Indonesian Independence Day celebrations in the New Capital City (IKN).

“(The increase) is still driven, among other things, by the activities of building the Nusantara Capital City, especially in preparing for the August 2024 proclamation anniversary ceremony,” said Pudji in a press conference on Monday (2/9/2024).

Following East Kalimantan were Bali and South Papua, which achieved star-rated hotel TPKs of 68.78% and 63.48%, respectively.

In line with star-rated hotels, the TPK for non-star-rated hotels in July 2024 also increased to 28.02. This figure grew by 0.37 points month-on-month and increased by 2.28 points year-on-year.

Bali had the highest TPK for non-star-rated hotels in July 2024, at 50.03%. It was followed by DKI Jakarta at 44.52% and North Kalimantan at 36.70%.
