MTÜ: guests spent seven out of ten nights in the countryside last year
Last year, the international turnover of the tourist areas of 2.8 million exceeded the 2019 value by 3 percent, while the 19.3 million domestic nights practically repeated it – the Hungarian Tourist Agency (MTÜ) summarized in its statement on Friday.
After Lake Balaton, Mátra-Bükk, the Budapest area, Debrecen and its surroundings, and Tokaj and Nyíregyháza were the most popular areas among the locals. According to the data of the National Tourist Information Center (NTAK), Zánká, Visegrád and Zalakaros received the most guests compared to the total population, they added.
81 percent of the 27.3 million rural guest nights registered in 2023 were spent in the 11 tourist areas. The three most popular areas: Lake Balaton, Mátra-Bükk and the Budapest area account for more than half of the accommodation traffic outside the capital. Most of the income of rural accommodation is also generated in the same areas, MTÜ stated.
