The Spanish Government has said it expects the tourism sector to bounce back this coming spring, after a slowdown caused by the Omicron variant of the coronavirus.
Tourism Secretary Fernando Valdes said during a meeting at the FITUR conference in Madrid that expectations for the year remain high.
In 2019, 80 million people visited Spain for holiday, whilst last year saw around a third of that number due to various lockdowns.
Hotel chains have said that they are noticing an increase in bookings recently, with reservations coming from the UK, Germany, Holland and France.
