DACH Region Hotels & Chains Report 2025

The past year has highlighted both the challenges and the resilience of the DACH hospitality sector. Germany and Austria have had to contend with sluggish growth, high energy costs, and persistent inflation, while broader geopolitical uncertainty – from international trade tensions to the ongoing war in Ukraine – continues to weigh on sentiment. Switzerland, by contrast, has remained comparatively stable, supported by strong domestic demand and its position as a high-value global destination. These differing dynamics illustrate the complexity of the region but also underline its importance as one of Europe’s most resilient markets.
