Montenegrin hotels have welcomed half a million tourists already

In the first six months of 2019, more than half a million tourists have been recorded in Montenegrin hotels. That’s’ 23,6% more tourists, or 12,5% beyond the results recorded in the same period in 2018.

New preliminary data provided by the Statistical Office of Montenegro (Monstat) indicate a very successful season in relation to collective accommodation, regardless of bad weather conditions in May and June. Total number of guests amounted to 502.744 whereas number of overnights reached 1.523.475.

These figures suggest a trend of shorter stays and extended weekend-trips as a new fashion in the world.

Budva is still the “capital of tourism”. There have been 211.826 tourists in the hotels in Budva.

Since the beginning of the year until the end of June, around 31.370 tourists have visited main tourist centers in the north, Kolašin and Žabljak.
