Day to Day Calculated Column
Hey vega!
I was able to use LOOKUP and specify both 364 days ago, and hotel. I added a calculated column to my test data model using the following expression:
PriorYearHotelValue = IF( Sheet1[Hotel] = "A", LOOKUPVALUE(Sheet1[Value],Sheet1[Date],Sheet1[Date] - 364,Sheet1[Hotel], "A"), LOOKUPVALUE(Sheet1[Value],Sheet1[Date],Sheet1[Date] - 364,Sheet1[Hotel], "B") )In my test data, I started with three columns: Date, Hotel, & Value. The LOOKUP expression looks for the value in Sheet1[Value], where date matches 364 days ago, and hotel matches A. I only have two hotels, so my IF statement executes the first LOOKUP if matches on A, and the second if not.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I was also able to come up with an alternate solution. I'll leave it here in case it helps anyone else out in the future.
=
VAR previousDate = 'Legacy Trans'[Date]-364
RETURN
CALCULATE(
SUM('Legacy Trans'[Amount]),
ALLEXCEPT('Legacy Trans','Legacy Trans'[Hotel]),
'Legacy Trans'[Dates] = previousDate
)
