After the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, the accommodation sector is finally showing signs of recovery and beginning to settle into the 鈥渘ew normal鈥. However, the new normal is not without its own challenges and European hoteliers are clearly feeling the effects of the war in Ukraine, rising energy prices, and overall macroeconomic uncertainty. In fact, in a 2022 survey of European accommodation professionals, the top three challenges faced across Europe were energy, costs, the overall economic situation, and acquiring and retaining staff. Of these challenges, energy cost was clearly top of mind, with a decisive 80 percent of the respondents citing energy costs as a main area of concern for their accommodation business.
