TRevPAB = Total Revenue ÷ Available Beds
What is TRevPAB?
TRevPAB (Total Revenue per Available Bed) is the per-bed cousin of TRevPAR. It divides total property revenue by the number of available beds rather than rooms, which is the only honest measure of performance in any property where one room can hold a variable number of guests.
For traditional hotels, RevPAR and TRevPAR work because rooms are the inventory unit. For hostels, capsule properties, dorm-style accommodation and any operation where beds are sold individually, the room-based denominator hides the actual yield. TRevPAB fixes that.
TRevPAB formula
Formula
TRevPAB = Total Revenue ÷ Available Beds
- Total revenue
- All operating-department revenue: bed sales, private rooms, F&B, tours, lockers, ancillary.
- Available beds
- Sum of bed-nights in the period (bed count × days) across all room types.
Why TRevPAB is critical for shared accommodation
A hostel with five 8-bed dorms and a hostel with eight 5-bed dorms have wildly different inventory structures, but both can show identical RevPAR. TRevPAB exposes which configuration is earning more per available bed, which is the only number that matters for shared-accommodation operators.
It also lets you yield individual beds rather than whole rooms. Mixed-gender vs female-only dorms, top vs bottom bunk pricing, season-by-season bed-mix shifts: all of these decisions need a per-bed denominator to evaluate honestly.
How to read your TRevPAB
- Compare TRevPAB across room types. Mixed dorms, private dorms and private rooms each have their own per-bed yield curve.
- Compare TRevPAB across seasons. Shoulder-season dorm demand often justifies converting beds to private-room configurations.
- Compare TRevPAB across channels. Hostelworld and Booking each carry different effective bed-yields after commission.
Strategies to lift TRevPAB
- Re-balance dorm vs private mix seasonally rather than treating it as a fixed asset configuration.
- Yield dorm beds individually, different rates for top/bottom bunks, female-only beds, lower-occupancy nights.
- Bundle ancillary (locker rental, breakfast, towel pack) at the bed level instead of per-booking.
- Open and close bed types per channel, not every channel converts equally for every dorm configuration.
- Run private-room-as-private-dorm pricing on shoulder dates to capture small groups.
Common questions about TRevPAB.
Mostly yes, along with capsule hotels, glamping with shared tents, dorm-style co-living and any other property where beds are sold individually. Traditional rooms-as-units hotels should use RevPAR/TRevPAR; the per-bed denominator only adds noise there.
