GOPPAR Calculator
GOPPAR = gross operating profit ÷ available room nights
Enter GOP and room count.
TL;DR GOPPAR = GOP ÷ available room nights $3,200,000 of GOP over 120 rooms × 365 nights = $73.06 GOPPAR; at $8M total revenue that is a 40% GOP margin. US full-service GOPPAR commonly runs ~$40–$120 as of Q3 2026, and varies widely by class and market.

The formula
GOPPAR = GOP ÷ (rooms × 365) · GOP margin = GOP ÷ total revenue
Worked example
A 120-room hotel earns $3,200,000 of gross operating profit for the year. Available room nights = 120 × 365 = 43,800, so GOPPAR = $3,200,000 ÷ 43,800 = $73.06. On $8,000,000 of total revenue, the GOP margin = $3,200,000 ÷ $8,000,000 = 40%.
Typical GOP margins & GOPPAR by class (indicative, as of Q3 2026)

| Upscale select-service | 38% – 48% | $55 – $110 |
| Full-service / upper-upscale | 28% – 38% | $40 – $120 |

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
What is GOPPAR?
GOPPAR is gross operating profit per available room. It equals gross operating profit divided by available room nights (rooms × days). A hotel with $3,200,000 of GOP and 120 rooms over 365 nights has a GOPPAR of $3,200,000 ÷ 43,800 = $73.06. It captures profitability per room, not just revenue.
How is GOPPAR different from RevPAR?
RevPAR (revenue per available room) measures top-line rooms revenue per available room. GOPPAR measures gross operating profit per available room, so it reflects both revenue and operating expenses across all departments. GOPPAR is a better read on how efficiently a hotel converts business into profit.
What is a good GOP margin for a hotel?
As of Q3 2026, GOP margins commonly run around 30% to 40% for economy and midscale select-service, 38% to 48% for upscale select-service, and 28% to 38% for full-service and upper-upscale hotels. Higher-rate, limited-service assets tend to carry the strongest margins.
How do you calculate available room nights?
Multiply the number of rooms by the number of days in the period: available room nights = rooms × days. For a full year, use 365 days, so a 120-room hotel has 120 × 365 = 43,800 available room nights.
