The data in this Looker Studio dashboard (Former Google Data Studio) shows searches in Google per month compared to their highest level in the last five years on hotels in local European languages in Google in the last 24 months: in countries with multiple language like Switzerland and Belgium we choose for the dominant language.
The data is pulled from Google Trends with the help of the Gtrends Connector from StrategiQ.
The data gives you insight into the growth of a source market and it seasonal demand.
Comment update : February 2024
In the last few months hotel searches are almost on the same level as last year, only France, Italy and the UK show a weaker performance then last year.
