With respect to their geographical distribution, we observe a concentration of hotel beds in parts of – the country that are developed in terms of tourism. There are various categories of hotels according to the level of services they offer, the type of ownership (Greek or foreign, part of a chain, or a group, etc.) as well as the region in which they operate. With respect to the region in which they are located and their activity, hotels are distinguished into urban hotels (which operate in city centres all year-round) and vacation resorts, which are to be found all over the country and mostly operate near the seaside (mainly in islands) during a specific season. Whatever the case may be, the hotel industry must be examined as part of an entire network that makes tourism a rather intricate business.
