So, I used to work front desk for a Sheraton for 5 years. This was 6 years ago, so idk how outdated this info might be (disclaimer)

It really depends on where your hotel is located and if it is "touristy"

For workers, the actual day of the holiday is dead.

As hotel guests, typically, it's busy a few days before and a few days after.

It also depends if the city have annual events that may have groups booking room blocks.

Generally, I recall my hotel pretty dead Xmas and NYE except during events like the Outback Bowl where we will maybe have a group block on 2 of our 8 floors.

We were more a business hotel in the business district so we were only 60 to 80 percent full and I pretty much finish my checklist early and just read damn you autocorrect all shift lol
