The Greek Tourism Confederation (SETE) on Thursday expressed its concern over the endurance of Greek tourism burdened with the huge load to support the Greek economy, Andreas Andreadis, president of SETE told its annual general assembly.
“Despite hard work and a very positive year in 2015, Greek tourism remains puzzled with the huge load burdened to support Greek economy,” Andreadis stressed, adding that the government -under the pressure to complete a review of the Greek programme- was ready to increase costs on hotels, restaurants, alcohol drinks, museum tickets, burdening foreign visitors.
He also underlined that a government plan to impose an overnight fee on hotels, ranked in categories above two stars, would be a gravestone for business activity in tourism, adding that this could lead to a massive wave of hotel downgrade to lower categories.
