Summary
The tourism accommodation activity accounted for 3.5 million overnight stays in October 2012, 1.5% more than in the same month of the previous year. Among the main inbound markets, the emphasis goes to the contributions of the Irish, the German and the British, that altogether grew by 12.3% in year-on-year terms. In October, the internal market declined again (-11.4%), after a rise in September which interrupted a 12 month period of declining results.
The revenue from the activity kept a declining trend, showing decreasing year-on-year change rates of 4.5% in total revenue and 3% in revenue from the accommodation.
