The EU Statistics Office also made a ranking by region of the most nights of accommodation, in Romania the best placed region being Bucharest-Ilfov, which only occupies the 132nd position, far behind the most popular European regions – Andalucia in Spain ( 35.6 million nights), Jadranska Hrvatska in Croatia (32.6 million) and the French region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur (24.9 million).
The number of rooms in Romania offered through Airbnb exceeded 11.3 million, according to the latest data sent to HotNews.ro by the National Institute of Statistics (INS). One out of ten Romanian tourists prefers to stay through this system, and in the case of foreign tourists, about 6% choose Airbnb.
