According to the European statistical office's findings released on Friday, Slovakia and the Czech Republic experienced the most significant surge in the number of nights spent by international guests, with both countries witnessing a remarkable 22% annual increase.
In terms of domestic guests, Greece led the pack with a 13% rise, followed by Slovakia at 11%, and Bulgaria at 9%. However, Slovenia observed a notable 17% decline in accommodations for domestic guests.
The report highlighted that the number of nights spent in tourist accommodations edged closer to pre-COVID-19 levels in May 2023.
