Meanwhile, according to categories, the ones with the most significant price increase are the four-star hotels, with 29 percent compared to a year ago. In addition, hotels with three and five stars have increased by 27 percent and 26 percent, respectively.
Commenting on these data, Mabrian’s representative for the Americas, Benjamin Jiménez, noted that with the latest figures, the Brazilian tourism industry is experiencing an optimistic trend this year.
“Both the Ministry and the destinations are clearly betting on innovation in the promotion and management of their destinations, and tourism intelligence will be a crucial pillar for the development of knowledge-based strategies in this context,” he also added.
