Hotels in Bucharest boost a higher occupancy rate than in the past five years

2015 has been the best year for the hotels in Bucharest compared to any of the past five, having had a growth of 8,6%, and reaching 68%. The growing number of tourists not only reflects in the occupancy rates, but also in the numbers of the tourism agencies that organize events and incoming. Comparing the working days with the weekends, analysts from STR Global noticed a larger market for business and corporate clients so they concluded that leisure tourism should grow faster to become at least equal to business tourism.

Romania stands around the middle of a ranking of hotel tariffs in Central and Eastern Europe capital cities, with 60 to 80 euros per night; Warsaw and Moscow are leaders in this regard. In Bucharest there are over 110 hotels that host over one million foreigners annually.
