The theme hotel market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $12.56 billion in 2023 to $13.20 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to rising disposable incomes, which led to increased spending on themed experiences, as well as increasing urbanization that boosted demand for unique and memorable lodging. Additionally, a growing interest in experiential travel drove the popularity of themed hotels, while an expanding tourism industry enhanced the appeal of differentiated accommodation. Increased social media influence also amplified the desire for visually appealing stays that are Instagrammable.
The theme hotel market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $16.21 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing demand for personalized and immersive travel experiences, the expansion of the global tourism industry, and the boost in occupancy rates for themed hotels. Additionally, rising investments in theme-based hospitality by major market players, technological advancements in hotel management and guest engagement, and growing collaborations between hotels and entertainment brands contribute to this growth. Major trends during this period include the integration of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to enhance guest experiences, the rise of eco-themed hotels that focus on sustainability and green practices, the expansion of cultural and heritage-themed hotels in emerging markets, the development of wellness-themed hotels catering to health-conscious travelers, and the growth of pop-culture-themed hotels driven by partnerships with movie and TV franchises.
The increasing number of international tourists is expected to drive the growth of the theme hotel market. This rise in global tourism is fueled by higher disposable incomes and improved travel accessibility, which boost the demand for unique and immersive lodging experiences. Theme hotels cater to this demand by offering distinctive, immersive experiences that appeal to travelers looking for memorable and unconventional accommodations. For example, according to the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based governmental organization, UK tourists took 86.2 million trips abroad in 2023, up from 71.0 million trips in 2022. Thus, the growing influx of tourists worldwide is contributing to the expansion of the theme hotel market.
Key players in the theme hotel market are focusing on technological innovations such as multi-sensory experiences to gain a competitive edge. Multi-sensory experiences engage multiple senses-such as sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell-to create a more immersive and enhanced environment. This approach improves user engagement and perception by stimulating several sensory pathways at once. For instance, in May 2024, Marriott Hotels, a US-based hospitality company, teamed up with Manchester United F.C., a UK-based football team, to launch the Twinned Suite of Dreams in the UAE. This suite offers a multi-sensory experience that immerses guests in the nostalgic ambiance of the 1990s, featuring retro gaming systems and classic consoles. The suite includes a dedicated entertainment area with CDs, a gaming system, and a collection of VHS videos showcasing classic matches and team stories, blending modern technology with nostalgic content.
In March 2024, Haunted Texas Theme Park, a US-based theme park, formed a partnership with EV Hotels to enhance the visitor experience through innovative hospitality solutions.
