(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 29, 2009 ) Slovia - Almost all Slovenian natural health resorts were reportedly booked to capacity, including during the holidays at the end of the year. The statistical data reveal that the occupancy rate during the Christmas holidays was between 80% and 100%; there were a few vacancies to be found at hotels and self-catering accommodation units for the New Year. These vacancies were quickly taken, however, in view of the fact that some guests, especially from abroad, decide at the last minute where they want to spend New Year's Eve. The majority of such guests come from Italy, as they are also the leading nation in terms of tourist arrivals.
Having generated more than one million overnight stays (1,033,819) in 2008, guests from abroad have practically reached the level of 2007. Domestic guests accounted for more than 1.5 million overnight stays, which is up 5.6% over the same period in 2007, and the arrival index stood at 8.6%.
Â
Again, the most numerous are Italians (74,000), followed by Austrians (71,000), Croatians (26,500) and Germans (19,500). In terms of overnight stays, the order has changed somewhat: Austrians generated the highest number of overnight stays (295,000), followed by Italians (265,000), Germans (95,500) and Croatians (80,500). Guests with the highest indices again include tourists from The Netherlands (index 143), the former Yugoslavia (index 140) and France (index 125).
