How to read these figures
These figures cover only facilities with 20 or more guest rooms. They are not the total for all accommodation facilities.
Starting with the January 2026 survey, facilities are classified differently. Figures up to 2025 use a different basis, so this site shows January 2026 onward only.
Guest nights count each night separately: one person staying two nights counts as two. This is not the number of visitors.
