2014-05-13

Visitor numbers rose from January to March, despite a late Easter holiday

Berlin, May 12th 2014 An increasing number of travellers are choosing to come to Germany\'s capital during the winter months, as can be seen in a year-to-year comparison of the first quarters of 2013 and 2014 respectively. From January to March 2014, Berlin welcomed 2.35 million visitors (+2.8%) who stayed a total of 5.4 million nights (+3.1%). German guests accounted for 3.1 million (57.3%) of the nights spent in Berlin during the first quarter, while the remaining 2.3 million nights (42.7%) were spent by visitors from abroad. These were the results revealed the 9th of march by the Berlin-Brandenburg Statistical Office.

\"The trend for Berlin\'s continued attraction to visitors in the winter months continues\", says Burkhard Kieker, CEO of visitBerlin. \"Although the Easter holidays were in late April this year and March therefore posted weaker numbers than usual, the first quarter as a whole saw an increase in visitor numbers.\"
