Avrupa şehirleri çift haneli otel fiyatlarında artış bildirdi

European cities, including London, reported double-digit price rises compared with the third quarter of last year according to hotel portal HRS, in its recent price radar.

The survey compares hotel room prices in 48 large cities across Europe and the rest of the world for the third quarter of 2011, with prices for the same period in 2010.

Globally, HRS found that on average the most expensive per-night hotel rates were in New York, Zurich and Moscow.

Hotel price radar in Europe – Zurich extends its lead with prices falling only in Rome and Athens

In the third quarter of 2011, the continued economic recovery and increased demand for hotel rooms meant per-night prices increased by as much as 10% in eight of the twenty cities surveyed.

There was particularly high demand in the European capitals of Vienna, Paris and Prague. Mediterranean destinations, such as Istanbul and Barcelona, also remained very popular during the summer months, meaning that hotels in these locations were able to increase their occupancy rates and prices.

At 14.3%, Moscow saw the largest increase. Here, the average room price rose to £124*. HRS noted a similar price increase in Zurich, which is also renowned for being expensive. Visitors to Switzerland’s largest city were forced to dig deep, prompted by the strength of the Swiss franc. On average, hotel owners charged £136 per night in the third quarter. This enabled Zurich to maintain its top ranking in Europe, ahead of Moscow and London.

Hotel prices per night also increased in the British capital. A night in a hotel on the Thames cost an average of £117, up approximately 11.3% from the same period last year.

The constant flow of negative headlines in Greece is putting pressure on prices in cities like Athens. Visitors there had to budget for £67 for a hotel room last quarter, down 1.7% from last year.

Hotel price radar worldwide – New York defends its lead

Trends in hotel prices varied widely outside of Europe. Prices rose in almost half the cities surveyed, with some increases in double figures. The largest price increase was seen in Buenos Aires at 15%, primarily due to the high rate of inflation in Argentina – approximately 25%.

New York maintained its position as the most expensive city for hotels. Hotel guests in the Big Apple paid £152, down approximately 2% from the same quarter last year. Falling room prices were also seen in Las Vegas, bringing them to just over £52 in the gambling capital of the United States.

Tokyo managed to put a stop to the hotel prices landslide, following the earthquake and nuclear disaster, with prices picking up again in September. The average price for a hotel room in Tokyo for the third quarter of 2011 was £107.

One of the few East Asian cities for which HRS reported rising hotel prices was Hong Kong. Following the Fukushima disaster, many large companies relocated their head offices from Japan to Hong Kong, at least on a temporary basis. The result was a significant increase in business trips and a price rise of at least 10% in the third quarter, to more than £97.
