Tourism
Tourism is an important economic factor in the district of Mayen-Koblenz and is becoming increasingly important. This is demonstrated by the continuous rise in the number of guests and overnight stays in recent years. However, the coronavirus pandemic had a significant impact on the tourism industry in 2020. As a result of business closures during the lockdown phases in spring and at the end of the year, the number of guests and overnight stays fell many times over in 2020.
Key tourism figures in the district of Mayen-Koblenz 1996-2020
In 2020, 226,192 overnight guests visited the district and booked 580,083 overnight stays. Compared to the previous year, the number of guests fell by 42.2 % and the number of overnight stays by 36.6 %. At 88.5 %, visitors from within Germany represent the largest group.
* Since January 2014, in addition to the units with ten or more tourist beds, the number of private accommodation units and small commercial enterprises below this cut-off threshold has also been included in the "establishments" characteristic for the first time. No data is available for this type of establishment for previous years. The comparability of this feature is therefore limited.
** In 2015, student overnight stays in the city of Mayen were included in the total number of overnight stays, which led to a significant increase in the figures compared to 2014. From 2016, student overnight stays will once again be disregarded. The year 2015 is therefore not included as a comparative value.

The number of guests and overnight stays is consistently above the state average and the average for all districts in Rhineland-Palatinate. After a sharp increase in the "Buga year" of 2011, the figures initially fell again and then increased every year, so that the Buga figures were exceeded from 2014 onwards. Due to coronavirus, however, the figures fell sharply in 2020.

Bed occupancy in the district of Mayen-Koblenz 1994-2020
The decline in bed occupancy in 2016 is the result of the special situation in 2015, in which student overnight stays in the city of Mayen were included in the total number of overnight stays and this led to a significant increase compared to 2014 and automatically resulted in a deterioration compared to 2016. At 31.4%, occupancy in 2019 was only slightly lower than in 2015. In 2020, bed occupancy was only 20.5% due to the pandemic, a decrease of 10.9% compared to the previous year.
