Overview Christopher J. Nassetta, President & Chief Executive Officer of Hilton, said, "We had another successful quarter, exceeding the high end of our guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and diluted EPS, adjusted for special items, and as a result, we are increasing our full year outlook, including our expectations for capital return. Fundamentals remain largely stable around the world, and we maintain our expectations for full year RevPAR growth of 1.0 percent to 3.0 percent. Development activity continues to be strong with nearly 1 in 4 rooms under construction globally set to become part of our portfolio. Additionally, we expect to increase our luxury distribution by approximately 15 percent this year, including openings in the quarter, such as the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, Conrad Osaka, Conrad Guangzhou and Conrad San Luis Potosi."
For the three months ended June 30, 2017, system-wide comparable RevPAR grew 1.8 percent primarily from increased ADR, benefiting from strength at our international hotels. Management fee and franchise fee revenues increased as a result of increases in RevPAR of 1.7 percent at comparable managed and franchised hotels, as well as from the addition of new managed and franchised properties to Hilton's portfolio.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, system-wide comparable RevPAR grew 2.4 percent from both increased occupancy and ADR. Management fee and franchise fee revenues increased as a result of increases in RevPAR of 2.3 percent at comparable managed and franchised hotels, as well as from the addition of new managed and franchised properties to Hilton's portfolio.
