Compared with 2023, in 2024 the number of nights spent in tourist accommodation rose in nearly all EU countries. The largest increase was recorded in Luxembourg (+22%), Malta (+13%) and Latvia (+7%). 

Slight decreases were recorded in France and Belgium (-1% each), while the figures remained stable in Sweden, Finland and Italy.

In 2024, the estimated number of nights spent at tourist accommodation establishments in the EU reached 2.99 billion, exceeding the previous year by 53.4 million, or 2%.

The growth in tourism nights was mainly driven by an increase in nights spent by international guests (+58.7 million), while the nights spent by domestic guests recorded a modest decrease (-5.3 million). In 2024, the EU tourism nights were fairly balanced between international (48%) and domestic guests (52%).
