According to the report published by one of the largest online hotel reservation portals hotels.com, this season has significantly increased the number of queries in the Internet on hotels in France, Italy, Spain and other European countries.

Pound sterling over the last year has strengthened its positions against euro. This makes the rest of Europe much more advantageous destination for the British than it was in 2008 and 2009.

Among the record cities, in which the number of requests has increased most remarkably – Bordeaux in France, Portuguese Albujefra resort, the summer capital of parties Ibiza, as well as the traditionally popular among British Amsterdam and Venice.
