The occupancy and ADR levels are the highest for any May in STR’s Berlin database. May also marked 12 consecutive months of positive year-over-year demand comparisons in the market. STR analysts note that multiple events helped Berlin push performance levels: Re:publica (6-8 May), Raw Materials Summit (20-22 May), 16th World Congress of the European Association for Palliative Care (23-25 May) and the Berlin E-Prix (25 May).
Bratislava, Slovakia
