Dublin tops in European hotel sector for 2013

Dublin is expected to be the star performer in the European hotels sector this year, despite no new properties coming on stream.

The latest European city hotel survey from professional services giant PwC has ranked Dublin as top performer for 2013, in terms of revenue per available room — a leading performance indicator used in the hotel industry — with 11.2% growth.

Although, such revenue growth (among Dublin hotels) is expected to slow to just over 5% this year and just under 4% in 2015; the capital would still be the top performer in Europe.
