The April 7, 2009 rate analysis for San Francisco, California hotels is based on the average rates of 282 hotels within San Francisco, CA and adjacent towns forming the San Francisco, CA Metropolitan Statistical Area.  The average rate for each hotel is calculated from the average of it's high and low room rates observed over a period of one year.  The rates range between the following values:

Lowest Average Room Rate:  $0 - Oceano Half Moon Bay
Highest Average Room Rate:  $450 - Hotel Drisco

The graph on the right shows the typical shape of a room rate distribution for a metropolitan area.  The colored areas depict the price breaks used to classify the hotels.  Rates greater than two standard deviations above the mean for all values are considered high end outliners and are removed from the price break calculations.

For the April 7, 2009 analysis, the resulting mean room rate for San Francisco, CA MSA hotels is $171 and the standard deviation is $75.

Hotels with average rates greater than one standard deviation above the mean are categorized as deluxe.  One standard deviation above the mean is $246, so San Francisco hotels with an average rate higher than $246 are classified as deluxe hotels ( magenta ) on the map.

Hotels with average rates falling in the lower half of the range below the mean are categorized as budget.  The rate halfway between the low rate and the mean rate is $86, so San Francisco hotels with an average rate lower than $86 are classified as budget hotels (green ) on the map.

Everything in between is categorized as moderate priced hotels, so San Francisco hotels with average room rates greater the $86 and less that $246 are classified as moderate priced hotels ( cyan ) on the map.
