New data from Hotels.com highlights how the Hotel Hop travel trend &#8211; booking multiple hotels on a single trip &#8211; increases during the summer as travelers plan itineraries combining experiences like concerts and business travel with leisure vacation in the same destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hotel Hop Summer, featured in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/unpack26\/summer?brandcid=EXPEDIA-US.COMMS.PR.UNPACK26SUMMER.GENERIC\">Unpack \u201926 Summer: The Trends in Travel<\/a> report, is a summer travel trend driven by three key motivations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Event Hopping: Music, sports and other fan-driven travel are encouraging travelers to book more than one hotel in a single trip.<\/strong> Travelers are pairing a hotel near a concert venue or stadium with a second stay in another part of the city to explore more of the destination on one trip. Hotel hopping enables travelers to experience different neighborhoods or find more flexibility and value.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Road Tripping: Summer road trips are helping fuel multi-hotel itineraries. <\/strong>Road trips are seeing a strong resurgence as travelers pair open-road adventures with multi-hotel itineraries this summer. Online buzz for iconic road trip routes has increased, especially as Route 66 (+302%) celebrates its centennial. Other trending routes include the Blue Ridge Parkway (+206%), Great River Road (+183%), and the Pacific Coast Highway (+75%).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bleisure Hopping: Travelers are also extending work travel with a leisure hotel stay in the same trip.<\/strong> Bleisure travel is trending online with more than 165K mentions this summer, making it a popular time for extending business travel with a leisure stay in the same city. Popular destinations for bleisure hopping include Helsinki, Finland, London, U.K. and Seoul, South Korea.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSummer travelers are trying to fit more into one trip \u2013 pairing a big concert downtown with a quiet stay on the other side of town, or a few beach days tacked on to work travel,\u201d said Melanie Fish, Vice President, Global Public Relations, Expedia Group. \u201cHotel hopping provides flexibility, making it easier for travelers to have a change in scenery or find more value on vacation, which means one trip can feel like multiple summer vacations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about how travelers are making the most of their summer trips, check out&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotels.com\/unpack26\/hotel-hop-summer?brandcid=HCOM-US.COMMS.PR.UNPACK26SUMMER.HOTEL\">Hotel Hop Summer<\/a> travel trend.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>###<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Notes to Editors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Methodology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hotel Hop Summer data supported by increase in attach (hotel + hotel) demand on Hotels.com globally in 2024 and 2025 for summer vs. other seasons.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Online mentions based on news, broadcast, and social media mentions of classic road trips and bleisure travel from March 16, 2025 to March 8, 2026, vs. March 17, 2024 to March 7, 2025.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What is Unpack \u201926 Summer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0Unpack \u201926 Summer is a seasonal travel trends update to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.expedia.com\/unpack26?brandcid=EXPEDIA-US.COMMS.PR.UNPACK26SUMMER.GENERIC\">Unpack \u201926: The Trends in Travel\u2122<\/a>, drawing on first-party data from Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo as well as social listening and third-party research conducted by OnePoll following the Market Research Society\u2019s Code of Conduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What makes Unpack \u201926 Summer a credible source for travel trends?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A:&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Unpack \u201926 Summer combines real-time platform data with third-party research and social listening.<\/strong> The report draws on insights from millions of users and builds on third-party research conducted by OnePoll, following the Market Research Society\u2019s Code of Conduct, first shared in the Unpack \u201926 report.
