On the German hotel market, all key performance data indicates a sustainable recovery in tourism in Germany after the challenging COVID-19 years of 2020 and 2021. Significant increases in overnight stays by guests in accommodation establishments were already evident in 2022 (+49%) and 2023 (+61%).

In 2024 around 496 million overnight stays were recorded, which not only exceeds the pre-COVID-19 figure from 2019, but also represents a new record in a long-term comparison. This reflects the resurgence in demand from city and business tourism as well as guests from abroad. Compared to the previous year, the number of overnight stays by foreign guests rose by a good 5% (85 million guests in 2024).

Other key figures such as room occupancy and average prices also developed positively. By 2024, the occupancy rate had returned to a high level of just under 67% nationwide. The top 5 most popular travel destinations in 2024 are Berlin (31 million guests), Munich (20 million guests), the Baltic Sea (19 million guests), Hamburg (16 million guests) and the Main/Taunus region with 15 million guests.

Furthermore, 52 million overnight stays were already registered between January and February 2025 - a strong signal for a continued positive trend in the current year.
