Hotels across Germany boasted a record number of overnight stays last year. The considerable increase was due to more guests from both home and farther afield, with end-of-year tourism particularly brisk. German hotels posted a record number of 394.1 million overnight stays in 2011, the Federal Statistics Office reported on Thursday. It meant a four-percent year-on-year increase. The number of hotel guests from home soared to 330.3 million people, up three percent on 2010 levels. 68.8 million people came from abroad - a six percent rise compared to 2010 figures.
