Room capacity in 1st quarter of 2017

As of 2017, more accommodations have been added to the accommodation statistics. This also means that there has been a minor adjustment of closed accommodations. It will affect the statistics in comparisons with previous years and hence there will be increases in the overnight statistics that are partly artificial and factual.

The size of room capacity is less susceptible to these changes, as the accommodations adjust their capacity according to demand.
