AtoZ News

4 Mar, 2025

2024 was the best tourism year on record for the EU, with the total number of nights spent at tourist accommodation establishments exceeding 3 billion. This reflects a 2.2% increase compared with 2023 (+65.4 million nights), following a final boost in the last quarter of the year.

Data show a substantial increase of 67.2 million nights spent by international guests (+4.9%) in 2024, while nights spent by domestic guests slightly decreased (-0.1%; -1.8 million).

Spain (500 million), Italy (458 million), France (451 million) and Germany (441 million) registered the highest number of nights spent at tourist accommodation establishments, representing 61.6% of the total nights spent in the EU. Luxembourg (3.4 million), Latvia (4.7 million) and Estonia (6.6 million) registered the lowest number of nights.

This information comes from monthly data on tourism published by Eurostat today. The article presents a handful of findings from the more detailed Statistics Explained article on nights spent at tourist accommodation establishments. BN00111025
