Driven by the regions, the hotel industry recovery is taking shape
Although it is still far from its cruising speed, the hotel sector recorded a recovery of activity in June, according to the 5th edition of the monthly EXTENDAM barometer, analysing the Covid-19 impact on business hotel industry in Europe.
“Hotels activity was better in June than in previous months and there was real growth over the last ten days of June. This trend seems to be ongoing in July.
