Tourism: Slight Decline in Overnight Stays in Vienna

In the federal capital Vienna, a small decline in overnight stays has been recorded after a long time. As reported by Vienna Tourism on Monday, around 1.78 million overnight stays were registered in the previous month. This is about 2 percent less than in July 2024. However, over the course of the year, the numbers remain positive.

Between January and July, Vienna recorded 10.64 million overnight stays. This represented an increase of 5 percent compared to the same period last year. The list of top markets this July was led by Germany, followed by Austria, the USA, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, and France.

In terms of revenue, increases have also been recorded for the entire year so far: In the period from January to June (July is not yet available, note), businesses generated around 632 million euros in overnight revenue. This is 7 percent more than in the same period last year.

The average occupancy rate of hotel rooms in July was around 73 percent, with bed occupancy at 56.2 percent. In total, about 82,800 hotel beds were available in Vienna in the previous month. According to Vienna Tourism, this was 2,800 more than were offered in July 2024.
