Whether you’re a tender couple, a family or just a passionate traveller – price always matters. But if it involves accommodation visitors to Germany can’t only depend on excellent value for money, they will even be assured of excellent facilities and repair.
Comparing accommodation within Europe, German hotel prices score well below the common, in line with the German Hotel Association (IHA). This may increasingly account for the truth that overnight stays in Germany have risen again in 2012 and 3 years in succession. Germany’s Federal Statistical Office reports 68.8 million overnight stays in 2012 – an extra increase of 8.1% in comparison to the former year.
“Due to the commonly prevailing economic troubles, price sensibility amongst travellers has increased in just about all European countries,” states Petra Hedorfer, Chief Executive Officer of the German National Tourist Board (GNTB). “Attractive competitive prices make a difference when choosing a travel destination – it is where Germany will always score highly.”
Room rates within Europe have risen in 2012 by 4.7% to 104 Euro, whereas in Germany they’ve got only risen by 3.4% and a standard rate of 94 Euro. Especially in Germany’s popular cities hotel rates are far below other European destinations.
Overall, visitor satisfaction can also be high – within the result of GNTO/ERV’s quality monitor 2011/2012 Germany’s value for money ratio was given excellent scores by holiday makers and business travellers alike.
