The number of international tourist arrivals in Rome's hotels grew significantly in 2022 compared to the first two years of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. That said, it remained below pre-pandemic levels, reaching around 3.6 million in 2022. As the number of arrivals partially recovered, the number of inbound overnight stays in Rome's hotels followed a similar trend.
Domestic tourism in Rome's hotels
With the ease of travel restrictions in 2022, the domestic tourism market in the Italian capital showed strong signs of recovery. That year, the number of domestic arrivals in hotels in Rome totaled approximately 2.4 million, rising sharply from 2021 but not catching up with the peak in arrivals from 2019. On the other hand, the number of international overnight stays in Rome's hotels rebounded in 2022, reaching its highest figure in a decade.
The hotel industry in Rome
In 2022, the number of hotels in Rome slightly rose compared to 2021. Overall, there were more than 1.6 thousand such establishments in the city. Most hotels were rated as three-star, although the number of four-star hotels was also significant. Despite Rome’s great popularity among international tourists, the city only ranked fifth on the list of the most expensive Italian cities to book an overnight stay in a four-star hotel as of June 2023.
