The San Antonio Business Journal has new reporting about the state of the San Antonio airport submarket, in part fueled by data from Source Strategies. In the article, San Antonio airport area hotels see business drop, journalist Scott Bailey explains how hotel demand and occupancy have declined in 2025 as the San Antonio International Airport has experienced a drop in travelers.
All but one of the major metros in Texas saw declining hotel revenues in August compared to August 2024. The steepest hit was in the Houston metro with revenues dropping 28.3% with revenues falling back to a more normal level after a hurricane-influenced surge in demand in August of 2024.
News4 San Antonio contacted Source Strategies for insight into the city’s hotel market, especially in connection to a proposed venue tax slated to be on the ballot in November. In the article, “Hotel occupancy falls while revenue rises”, journalist Phil Sterling interviewed Source’s Director of Data Operations Paul Vaughn to help understand some of the issues involved and how it may impact San Antonio’s “Project Marvel” downtown sports and entertainment district.
