Madrid and Andalucía supplied 36% of Spain’s domestic hotel nights

Local and nearby markets supplied much of some provinces' demand

Andalucía accounted for 46.74% of domestic hotel nights in Cádiz and 46.24% in Málaga. Cataluña supplied 51.39% in Tarragona and 68.25% in Girona. The table follows the home community, so a within-community trip still appears if it generated a hotel night. Source 1 Source 2

Alicante and Valencia drew heavily from Madrid

The Madrid region supplied 23.78% of domestic hotel nights in Alicante and 30.64% in Valencia. The corresponding figures for residents of Comunitat Valenciana were 20.49% and 20.01%. In both provinces the highest share came from outside the destination's own community. Source 1

Why the chart holds the same provinces in each view

The comparison uses the nine provinces or cities with the most hotel nights by residents of Spain. The group stays fixed as the selected home community changes. The table includes all other destinations and the national row. Source 1

Each share uses nights at the destination

A province's 30% from Madrid means three in ten of its domestic hotel nights were made by Madrid residents. It cannot tell you which province received the most Madrid-origin hotel nights without also knowing how many domestic nights each destination recorded. Source 1 Source 2
