Hotel REITs: The Most Contrarian Idea I Have

In the article, I described "RevPAR" as "occupancy rate MULTIPLIED BY AVERAGE DAILY ROOM RATE". You'll notice that this is a mathematical identity with what you describe as "revenue per number of rooms available to rent" which is actually rather redundant with the name - "RevPAR" or "REVenue Per Available Room."
