(*) The monthly base index of 100 is equal to the ratio between the ∑ of results (number of rooms occupied, number of meals served, etc.) obtained from a sample taken during the month or over a given period and the ∑ of results obtained from the same sample during the same month or given period of the base year. The base year chosen for the current index is 2007. The example below illustrates the equation: (the ∑ of rooms occupied in January of year X / the ∑ of rooms occupied in January 2007) X 100. If the index is superior to 100, the number of rooms occupied has increase with reference to the base year. (**) The monthly aggregate index is obtained through weighting the four leading sectors of tourist activity. The weighting mode is explained in detail in the publication on the page presenting the index.

This publication also includes the following statistics:



Leading monthly statistics on the hotel industry and bed and breakfast.
