6 Introduction 1 Introduction The aim of this publication is to give a detailed overview of the FSO s Swiss tourism statistics. The first section deals with the tourist accommodation statistics (HESTA) and presents the main results for the year The topics covered deal with trends in supply and demand at national level and in Switzerland s tourist regions. The second section of this publication concerns the 2013 survey on the travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population. Topics such as the travel destination of Swiss tourists, length of stay and even reasons for travel are covered. The tourism satellite account s annual indicators, in the third section, give information on the gross value added, tourism demand as well as employment in tourism. The fourth section of the publication presents a series of economic indicators making it possible to place the findings from the tourism statistics in a wider context. Marking 80 years of existence for the tourist accommodation statistics, this publication is enhanced by a final section that offers a retrospective of results from Currently, data for tourist accommodation statistics are collected only from hotels, health establishments, youth hostels and campsites. Therefore no information is yet available on vacation homes or group accommodation. 4 Swiss tourism statistics 2014 FSO 2015
7 Tourist accommodation statistics 2 Tourist accommodation statistics 2.1 Supply in tourist accommodation Supply in 2014 In 2014, the tourist accommodation statistics comprised, on annual average, 4554 open 1 hotels and health establishments in Switzerland, corresponding to 128,638 rooms and 246,449 beds available 2 (G 2.1.1a). The distribution of the establishments differs according to the tourist regions. Graubünden had the largest proportion (14.0%), followed by Valais (12.5%). In contrast, the smallest proportion of establishments was found in the Fribourg Region and Geneva (2.6% for each region). The national average capacity of a hotel establishment was 54 available beds (G 2.1.1b). However, Geneva had 126 beds per establishment which was by far the highest number in Switzerland. This was followed by the Zurich Region (76 beds). The lowest number was in the Jura and Three Lakes Region (30 beds). In the area of supplementary accommodation (youth hostels and campsites only), the geographical distribution of establishments is only slightly different from that of hotels. In fact, of the 412 campsites taken into consideration 3 in the 2014 statistics, the majority were in Valais (15.5%) and the Bernese Oberland (12.9%). Geneva was the region with the lowest proportion of supplementary accommodation establishments (1.0%). As far as the 52 youth hostels included in the 2014 survey are concerned, Graubünden had the largest share (15.4%). This was followed by the Zurich Region (13.5%). The lowest proportions were recorded for Geneva and in the Fribourg Region (1.9% for each region).

The number of establishments decreased in comparison with 2013 ( 62 establishments/ 1.2%) (G2.1.2a), whereas the number of rooms increased (+530 rooms/+0.4%). Among the tourist regions, the supply, in terms of establishments, also declined in eleven of thirteen regions between 2013 and The most marked decrease could be observed in Ticino ( 19 establishments/ 4.2%), whereas Graubünden showed the largest increase (+2 establishments/+0.2%). As far as rooms are concerned, nine regions recorded an increase with the Zurich Region taking the lead, registering an additional 510 rooms (+2.9%). Conversely, the most obvious decline was seen in Ticino ( 390 rooms/ 3.9%). Over a comparative period of ten years (G2.1.2b), the number of surveyed establishments has diminished greatly. Thus in 2005, the number of surveyed establishments totalled 5836 in Switzerland, corresponding to a decline over this period of more than 700 units ( 12.1%). As far as the number of rooms is concerned, a drop can also be observed in comparison with 2005 but is less marked than for the number of establishments ( 3075 rooms/ 2.1%). For this period, all the tourist regions saw a decrease in supply for the number of establishments. Ticino once again registered the greatest decline with 113 fewer establishments ( 20.5%). Of the nine regions registering a decrease in the number of rooms, Ticino also registered the greatest decline ( 1769 units/ 15.4%). Meanwhile the Zurich Region showed the greatest increase (+2564 rooms/+16.6%). 4 Number of rooms/beds in establishments surveyed, on annual average 6 Swiss tourism statistics 2014 FSO 2015

10 Tourist accommodation statistics 2.2 Demand in tourist accommodation General trend in demand Over the past ten years, the total number of overnight stays in hotels and health establishments in Switzerland has been quite diverse (G 2.2.1). As of 2005, three consecutive years of growth were observed and a total of 37.3 million overnight stays was reached in 2008, which was the best result since However, this growth came to a halt the following year was a year marked by the world economic crisis, and a strong decline in demand was observed ( 4.7% compared with the previous year). Despite a slight recovery in 2010 (+1.7%), the number of overnight stays fell again in 2011 ( 2.0%), the growing strength of the Swiss franc against the Euro and other currencies had a negative effect on the results for In spite of the stabilisation of exchange rates, 2012 showed a decline ( 2.0%). In 2013, the number of overnight stays bounced back (+2.5%) and an increase in 2014 confirmed this recovery. In 2014, the hotel industry recorded 35.9 million overnight stays, i. e. an increase of 0.9% (+310,000 overnight stays) compared with As for supplementary accommodation, the trend for campsite occupancy experienced a decline in With a total of 2.7 million overnight stays, demand showed a drop of 6.7% compared with This result was the fifth consecutive decline since 2009, i. e. a drop of 26.9% over this period. As far as youth hostels were concerned, the total number of overnight stays registered in 2014 was 951,000 units, i. e. a slight increase of 0.4% compared with Monthly change in demand In 2014, in the hotel sector, nine out of twelve months registered an increase in overnight stays (G 2.2.2). In the first six months, the total of overnight stays was 17.1 million, which is a stable result (+1800 units /no relative change) compared with the same period in The months of February ( 119,000 overnight stays/ 3.9%) and June ( 76,000/ 2.3%) posted a decline, whereas all the other months in the first half year recorded an increase. The 2nd half-year recorded an increase of 308,000 overnight stays (1.7%). With the exception of July, all the months in the second half of the year showed an increase, for example October Overnight stays in hotels and health establishments, G In millions Source: FSO Tourist accomodation statistics 8 Swiss tourism statistics 2014 FSO 2015
11 Tourist accommodation statistics (+149,000 overnight stays/+5.7%) and December (+111,000 overnight stays/+4.5%) which recorded the biggest increases. With regard to supplementary accommodation, campsites showed growth of 15.8% (+106,000 overnight stays) during the first half of 2014, compared with the same period of the previous year. This result is largely due to the month of June which showed an increase of 100,000 overnight stays (+35.2%). However, the 2nd half-year saw the number of overnight stays decline ( 298,000 overnight stays/ 13.6%). The months of July and August which together represent more than half of the annual demand are responsible for this decrease with a cumulated decline of 18.0% ( 326,000 overnight stays) compared with The other months of this first half-year registered positive demand. The youth hostels recorded a decrease in overnight stays of 2.1% ( 9000 units) for the first six months of 2014 compared with the same period in However, an increase was observed during the second half of the year. It represents an increase of 2.5% (+13,000 overnight stays) Change in domestic and foreign demand In 2014 in the hotel sector, foreign demand recorded 19.9 million overnight stays, i. e. an increase of 0.9% (+173,000 overnight stays compared with 2013). Domestic visitors generated 16.0 million overnight stays, which represents an increase of 0.9% (+137,000 overnight stays). Looking back on the past ten years, foreign and domestic demand registered continued growth from 2005 to 2008 (G2.2.3a). Marked by the global economic crisis, 2009 saw quite a significant decline in the number of foreign and Swiss overnight stays. In 2010, however, a rise was observed for both types of demand. From 2011, domestic demand was quite stable before increasing in 2013 and With 16 million overnight stays, 2014 saw the best result since Meanwhile foreign demand fell considerably in 2011 and 2012 before recovering in 2013 and increasing in Despite this return to growth, the number of foreign overnight stays is still below the 2010 level and far from the 2008 result.

This result is in keeping with a continued decline in demand from European visitors which started in Until 2008, overnight stays from this continent saw a period of strong growth but the world economic crisis and strong rise in the Swiss franc s value against the Euro have considerably affected this demand. Between 2008 and 2014, overnight stays by these visitors thus fell by 21.7%. Among the main visiting countries from this continent (those with more than 650,000 overnight stays in 2014), Germany is emblematic of this marked decline (G 2.2.4b). As of 2009, visitors from this country registered continued annual decreases, peaking in 2012 with a fall of 11.2% compared with Between 2008 and 2014, the decline reached 30.4%. One would have to return to 1960 to find a lower number of overnight stays by German guests. The Netherlands also followed the same trend and registered a strong decrease during this period ( 36.9% between 2008 and 2014). In general, for the other main visiting countries, despite rises for some of these the decrease between 2008 and 2014 remains relatively strong. 10 Swiss tourism statistics 2014 FSO 2015

This result represents a rise of 9.9% compared with Since 2005, demand from these visitors has shown particularly marked growth. As of 2010, annual growth has been between 9.9% and 16.7%. The comparison between 2005 and 2014 speaks for itself: Asian overnight stays have seen an increase of around 100%. Among the leading countries of origin from the Asian continent (those with more than 250,000 overnight stays in 2014), two countries stand out for their very strong growth (G2.2.5b).

In contrast, Japan, which was still the greatest contributor to demand from the Asian continent in 2005 with 585,000 overnight stays, has slowly but steadily seen its number of overnight stays fall. In 2014, Japanese demand registered 440,000 overnight stays ( 10.5% compared with 2013).

18 Tourist accommodation statistics 2.3 Duration of stay In 2014, visitors stayed an average of 2.09 nights in hotels and health establishments in Switzerland. This duration was, however, longer for foreign visitors (2.17 nights) than for Swiss visitors (2.00 nights). Over the past ten years, the length of stay at nationwide level has gradually decreased, especially as of 2009 (G2.3a). In 2005 it was 2.39 nights with a duration of 2.22 nights for Swiss visitors and 2.53 nights for foreign visitors. Among the tourist regions, Graubünden recorded the longest stay in 2014 with 2.90 nights (G2.3b). In contrast, the shortest length of stay was observed in the Fribourg Region (1.62 nights).

As was the case in Switzerland (+0.9%), the total number of overnight stays recorded in 2014 at EU28 level increased compared with 2013 (+2.0%). As far as the neighbouring countries were concerned 7, only Germany (+3.2%) registered an increase. Meanwhile, decreases were registered for France ( 1.6%), Italy ( 1.0%) and Austria ( 0.5%).

21 Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in 2013 In 2013 each person resident in Switzerland undertook on average 3.0 trips with overnight stays and 10.5 day trips 1. 61% of the trips with overnight stays had a destination abroad whereas those without an overnight stay mainly took place in Switzerland (89%). The number of trips with overnight stays increased by 9% compared with This increase is mainly due to a rise in the number of trips made in Switzerland (+17%). 3.1 Trips with overnight stays 87.5% of the Swiss resident population 2 undertook at least one trip with one or more overnight stays away from home in The total number of trips was 22.2 million. While the frequency of these trips is roughly the same for both sexes, contrasting behaviours appear when comparing linguistic regions and age groups (G3.1). With 2.0 trips per person, persons living in Italian-speaking Switzerland travelled less often than those living in German or French-speaking Switzerland (both 3.1 trips per person). Persons aged 6 to 14 as well as those aged 25 to 44 travelled the most, with 3.6 trips on annual average compared with 2.1 for persons aged 65 and over.

22 Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in Travel destinations Of the trips with overnight stays registered in 2013, 39% had a Swiss destination (G3.1.1). 37% of the trips were to neighbouring countries, in particular Germany (13%), France (10%) and Italy (9%). 17% of trips were made to other European countries and 7% outside of Europe Duration of trips 65% of trips abroad included four overnight stays or more (G3.1.2). They thus lasted longer than trips in Switzerland, which were mainly trips with one to three overnight stays (65%).

23 Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in Accommodation Hotel accommodation is the most popular choice for trips abroad of short and long duration, accounting for 62% and 46% respectively of accommodation (G 3.1.3). Although hotel accommodation also comes first for trips in Switzerland of up to three overnight stays (38%), supplementary accommodation is preferred for longer trips of four overnight stays or more (45%). Staying with friends or relatives is also popular for short trips in Switzerland (35%), whereas it accounts for only 15% of longer trips Main means of transport Motorised private transport is the means of transport most used for trips of one to three overnight stays, both for those taking place in Switzerland (70%) and those abroad (53%) (G3.1.4). With regard to trips of four overnight stays or more, motorised private transport is also preferred for long trips within Switzerland (69%), whereas the plane is most frequently used for long trips abroad (46%). In Switzerland, land-based public transport is used for 27% of trips of short duration and 26% of trips of long duration. 18% of short duration trips abroad were made by land-based public transport, compared with 10% of trips of four overnight stays or more.

24 Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in Long-term change of trips with overnight stays Having experienced a downward trend, the number of trips with overnight stays made by the resident population aged 15 and older has been on the rise since 2012 (G3.1.5). Nonetheless, in comparison with the early years of the survey, the share of trips in Switzerland with only one to three overnight stays fell from 36% in 1998 to 25% in On the other hand, trips with four or more overnight stays abroad have gained ground and in 2013 had the largest share of trips (41%), a share which was only 29% in Trips with overnight stays per person, Resident population aged 15 and over G Abroad - 4 overnight stays or more Abroad overnight stays In Switzerland - 4 overnight stays or more In Switzerland overnight stays Source: FSO Travel behaviour 22 Swiss tourism statistics 2014 FSO 2015
25 Travel behaviour of the Swiss resident population in Day trips In addition to trips with overnight stays, there are trips without overnight stays or day trips. The resident population aged 6 years and over made 76.4 million such trips in The purpose of 46% of day trips in 2013 was leisure and recreation (G3.2a). Conversely, business trips only represented 5% of day trips. As was the case for trips with overnight stays, day trips made by persons aged 15 or over also fell in comparison with the first survey (G 3.2b). From 12.5 in 1998, with a peak of 14.8 in 2003, their number fell to 10.2 trips per person in Day trips by trip purpose Resident population aged 6 and over G 3.2a Leisure, recreation and holidays In millions Visiting friends and relatives Business purpose Other Source: FSO Travel behaviour Day trips per person, Resident population aged 15 and over G 3.2b Source: FSO Travel behaviour 2015 FSO Swiss tourism statistics
26 Annual Indicators of the Tourism Satellite Accounts 4 Annual Indicators of the Tourism Satellite Accounts The annual indicators of the tourism satellite accounts provide initial estimates of the main aggregates of the most important tourist products from the tourism satellite account in summarised form. The production of these annual indicators is focused on directly estimating the three key areas of the tourism satellite accounts: the gross value added by tourism, tourism demand as well as employment in tourism in full-time equivalent jobs. These reference values are used to measure the economic influence of tourism in Switzerland. 4.1 Gross value added by tourism The gross value added by tourism increased considerably from 2011 to 2013 (+2.1%). Gross value added by tourism is composed of the two product categories: tourism-specific and non-tourism specific products. Tourism specific products account for 97.0% of the total gross value added by tourism. The value added generated by tourism-related products is also posted in the category tourism-specific products. The share of value added in the total economy s value added that is generated by tourism-related products remained practically unchanged between 2011 (20.6%) and 2013 (21.0%, as in 2012). Non-tourism specific products created some 3.0% of gross value added by tourism. The percentages were 2.8% in 2011 and 2012 and 2.7% in 2013 respectively.

27 Annual Indicators of the Tourism Satellite Accounts It is worth noting that the latter products shares of value added by tourism were practically stable during the past three years. Despite a decline in 2012 ( 0.5%), the value added for Accommodation increased again in 2013 (+1%). The difference is even more pronounced for food and beverage serving services in hotels and restaurants where a decline of 4.0% was first of all recorded in 2012, followed by an increase of 2.5% in The gross value added by tourism from passenger transport increased both in 2012 (+2.2%) and in 2013 (+2.3%). The gross value added by tourism from travel agencies and tourist offices registered negative growth in 2012 ( 1.8%), followed by an increase in 2013 (+2.2%). The largely positive trend of the gross value added by tourism for all products in 2013 resulted in an overall increase of 2.0%. In contrast, in 2012 the results were more varied; overall growth was very weak (+0.1%) due to the negative trend registered for some products. 4.2 Tourism demand Tourism demand is the total expenditure on products or services consumed by tourists. This includes both expenditure by tourists as well as that by third parties on behalf of tourists. The indicators of the last three years show that on average, 61.4% of tourism demand consisted of tourism characteristic products (2011: 60.6%; 2012: 62.2%; 2013: 61.3%). Accordingly, tourism characteristic products carry a large weight in the total tourism demand (G 4.2). In 2012, the demand for tourism characteristic products remained almost constant (+0.1%) and then increasing by 2.0% in After having registered a decrease of 2.4% in 2012, the total tourism demand increased considerably in 2013 (+3.5%). The products accommodation, food and beverage serving services and passenger transport accounted for over 50% of tourism demand. Between 2011 and 2013, they were even responsible for more than 83% of demand in the category of tourism characteristic products.

28 Annual Indicators of the Tourism Satellite Accounts On the decline in 2012 ( 1.0%), tourism demand for accommodation increased slightly in 2013 (+0.4%). The marked decrease in demand for food and beverage serving services in hotels and restaurants that was registered in 2012 ( 3.0%) gave way to a positive trend in 2013 (+1.0%). High growth rates were seen in passenger transport in 2012 (+2.6%) and in 2013 (+3.0%). In 2013, tourism demand showed positive trends for all products. 4.3 Tourism employment Accommodation and food and beverage serving services are very labour intensive products; they are therefore particularly important to employment in tourism. Employment in accommodation first of all increased slightly in 2012 (+0.4%) before falling in 2013 (+0.9%). In food and beverage serving services in hotels, employment saw negative growth in 2012 ( 0.6%) and in 2013 ( 1.2%). Employment growth in passenger transport (2012: +1.4 %; 2013: +1.7%) ultimately contributed to maintaining overall employment in the tourism sector at a level almost identical to that between 2011 and The total volume of tourism employment in 2013 corresponded to 167,590 full-time equivalents. This corresponds to a share of 4.3% in employment in the Swiss economy as a whole. Following a slight increase (+0.3%) in 2012, tourism employment decreased slightly in 2013 ( 0.3%) and thus remained practically constant between 2011 and Tourism employment, by product, , in full-time equivalents G Accommodation Food and beverage serving services Transport services Travel agency, tour operator and tourist guide services Culture A.1 Tourism-characteristic products A.

29 Economic indicators 5 Economic indicators This chapter presents indicators providing a certain amount of economic context to the findings of the tourism statistics. From an economic perspective, the choice of these indicators is restricted to important general topics. 5.1 Gross domestic product in real terms Gross domestic product (GDP) measures a national economy s performance during one year. It measures the value of the goods and services produced in the relevant country, provided that they are not used to produce other goods and services. In other words, it defines the sum of the value added. GDP is calculated based on current prices, as well as on constant prices for a given year. Using constant prices, real economic development is represented without taking into account price changes. Over the last 10 years, Switzerland's GDP expressed in real terms (constant prices) has evolved in a similar manner to that of the EU28. This was also seen in 2014 (Switzerland: +1.9%; EU28: +1.3%) (G5.1). There were, however, certain aspects that set Switzerland apart for certain years. This is notably the case in 2012 when Switzerland showed a growth in GDP of 1.1% whereas the EU28 showed a decline of 0.5%. In 2013, Switzerland's GDP rose by 1.8% while that of the EU28 registered an almost stable result (+0.1%).

30 Economic indicators 5.2 Consumer confidence index The consumer confidence index measures the purchasing intentions of private households. This survey is carried out every quarter (January, April, July and October) among some 1200 households who are asked to give their subjective assessment of topics 1 such as the general economic situation, their budget situation and even job security. The consumer confidence index has had contrasting fortunes during the last 10 years. From January 2004 to October 2005, negative values were observed (G5.2). However, a reversal of this trend was evident between January 2006 and April In fact, all the results during this period showed positive values. After this, it was not until July 2010 (or April 2010 for the new index 2 ) that positive values were seen again. Nevertheless, from July 2011 (or April 2011 for the new index) negative values were again registered and this trend continued until the end of Values stabilised somewhat in Nonetheless a slightly negative trend was observed during the last quarter. 5.3 Household final consumption expenditure Household consumption expenditure is all the expenditure households devote to purchasing consumer goods and services 3 in Switzerland. Household final consumption is therefore the value of goods and services used to meet human needs directly. If a comparison is made for Switzerland between the total household consumption expenditure and that assigned specifically to the restaurant and hotel sector, the expenditure in this sector has, overall, seen more significant fluctuation of its annual variations between 2003 and 2013 (G5.3a). Whereas the trend for total household consumption expenditure showed not a single negative result during this period, the restaurant and hotel sector showed six in total.

31 Economic indicators In 2009, Swiss household consumption expenditure in the restaurant and hotel sector showed an increase, followed by two consecutive decreases in 2010 and 2011 (G5.3b). In comparison, inverse tendencies were observed in the countries neighbouring Switzerland for the period between 2009 and From 2012, Switzerland registered positive growth as did Germany and Austria whereas Italy and France registered negative results 4.
