More than three million bednight bookings have been lost following the Government’s escalation to Level 3 of the ‘Living With Covid-19’ plan earlier this week, a new survey from the Irish Hotels Federation (IHF) shows.

The IHF survey, carried out this Wednesday, found almost 3.3 million bednight bookings have been lost from October to December, compared to the same time last year. This represents an all-time-low for the industry.
