Marriott International has reopened all its hotels in China and is seeing a steady recovery in the United States, its biggest market, Chief Executive Officer Arne Sorenson said on Monday.<\/p>

Shares of the hotel operator, which owns the Ritz-Carlton and St. Regis luxury brands, rose as much as 8.1% to USD95.64 in afternoon trading after Sorenson said the occupancy rate in China was 40% currently, up from 7% to 8% in February, when COVID-19 started spreading.<\/p>

\u201cIt\u2019s not just leisure travel growing, but it is business travel. Chinese are flying again,\u201d Sorenson said at a Goldman Sachs conference.<\/p>

In the United States, Marriott\u2019s hotels that remained open crossed the 20% occupancy threshold and continue to see an improvement, Sorenson said.<\/p>

\u201cThe (U.S.) hotels that are performing strongest are those that are most dependent on drive to business.\u201d<\/p>

The company had an occupancy rate of about 12% in North America in April, with 16% of its hotels closed temporarily.<\/p>

However, Sorenson warned that it could take Marriott a few years to get back to levels of occupancy seen in 2019, when its global occupancy rate was 71%.<\/p>
