Hotel prices in the popular holiday destination Turkey have increased by as much as 400% compared to 2019. Turkey has seen a big increase in demand since restrictions from the pandemic were lifted. Consumers looking for a quick getaway are choosing Turkey due to the country offering some of the most relaxed rules since the pandemic restrictions were eased.
UK Holidaymakers who would normally travel to Spain are now also flocking to Turkey due to the new rules put in place by the Spanish government. Stricter rules for non-EU travellers coming into Spain has put many people off booking their Spanish getaway. To see the new rules, check out our Spanish News Article published last week.
We compared multiple All Inclusive Hotel deals with popular sites like Booking.com, Loveholidays.com, Onthebeach and Travelrepublic.co.uk. All these sites prices have increased dramatically.
As an example, Wind Of Lara hotel in Antalya cost £450 for an All Inclusive 10 night stay for 2 adults and 1 child in 2019. Currently the cost has gone upto £1500 for the same duration.
Liberty Hotels Lara which is also in Antalya cost £810 for a 10 night All Inclusive stay in 2019 but prices are now averaging £3500 for the same duration.
The cost of holidays in turkey have increased so much, many families are now unable to book a cheap getaway to the region.
Here at TravelZine, we love Turkey and have chosen the country as our second favourite holiday destination for families, just behind Dubai.
As we publish, prices are increasing and indications show these will not come down any time soon. It’s unfortunate that hotels have increased their prices to cover the cost of the pandemic but as usual, demand always reflects price in travel.
We have reached out to the hotels identified and await their response.
