NUREMBERG, GERMANY--(Marketwire - September 30, 2011) - Where is accommodation
comparatively expensive and in which big city do hoteliers lure by discounts?
hotel.info, the free online hotel reservation service for more than 210,000
hotels worldwide, examined again the development of prices in big cities. The
current findings of the hotel.info price barometer:
* Amsterdam is by far the frontrunner; The Hague comes second
* New York is the most expensive city in the world, hotels in Oslo and Moscow
heading the list in Europe
Results of the hotel price barometer for the Netherlands (prices in Euros)*
With a slight price increase and an average room rate of EUR 116.70 the hotel
business in Amsterdam asserts its position as the most expensive hotel
destination of the five big Dutch cities.
The Dutch dressage rider Adelinde Cornelissen won two gold medals in the
European Championship in Rotterdam. For the local hotel business the increase of
the room rates by 5.32 % was not enough to get a place on the winner's podium.
With EUR 83.80 Rotterdam takes the fourth place among the national top 5.
In the same month last year, Eindhoven was the venue of the IPC world swimming
championships. This year, the hotels of the five biggest Dutch cities lured --
by substantial discounts. The room rates dropped by about 7.5 % to EUR 83.36.
Results of the hotel price barometer for European capital cities (prices in
Euros)*
The room rates in Oslo increased by over 7 % to EUR 150.73 on average. Compared
to the price level in other parts of Europe an overnight stay in the Norwegian
capital city was the most expensive one. But in other Scandinavian cities
accommodation was also not exactly cheap. Copenhagen, Stockholm and Helsinki
came third, fifth and eighth place. While the Danish capital benefited from the
Triathlon KMD Challenge Copenhagen 2011, the average room rate in Stockholm
dropped slightly by 1.08 %.
On international level the hotels in Amsterdam charging EUR 116.70 are more
centrefield. Significantly more expensive were rooms in Moscow. With prices
risen by 10.61 % to EUR 146.55, the Russian capital holds the second place. Not
even half the amount was paid by guests in Berlin and Madrid. Holiday makers and
business travellers paid around EUR 70 in these popular cities.
Results of the hotel price barometer for other capitals and large cities (prices
in Euros)
Among other big cities, New York, the Big Apple, takes the first place, closely
followed by Rio de Janeiro.
