Abstract Forecasting hotel arrivals and occupancy is an important component in hotel revenue management systems. In this paper we propose time series approach for the arrivals and occupancy forecasting problem. In this approach we simulate the hotel reservations process forward in time. A key step for the faithful emulation of the reservations process is the accurate estimation of its parameters. We propose an approach for the estimation of these parameters from the historical data. We considered

Appropriate Forecasting Model Forecasting is done by monitoring changes that occur over time and projecting into the future. Forecasting is commonly used in both the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors of the economy. There are two common approaches to forecasting: qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative forecasting methods are especially important when historical data are unavailable. Qualitative forecasting methods are considered to be highly subjective and judgmental. Quantitative forecasting methods

1. The first step in evaluating a regression model is to determine whether the sign of the estimated slope term makes sense. The second step is to test whether or not the slope term is significantly different from zero. The appropriate statistical test to determine this is a t-test since the true regression error variance is generally unknown. The third check of regression is to evaluate what percent of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by variation in the independent variable
