The source adds the following information:
"This indicator is based on the overall number of overnights of both resident and non-resident tourists in hotels and similar establishments and refers to the
relationship between existing capacity to provide accommodation services to visitors and the extent to which it is used. The net occupancy rate of rooms is obtained by dividing the total number of rooms used during the reference period (i.e. the sum of the rooms in use per day) by the total number of rooms available for the reference period (i.e. the sum of rooms available per day net of temporary
closures)".
