France - a 2013 Market Snapshot And The Outlook For 2014 And Beyond

Historically, the evolution of French RevPAR has been influenced by the growth in GDP and major events like the soccer World Cup in 1998 or the rugby World Cup in 2007. No such major event is scheduled in France before the soccer Euro in 2016 and the Ryder Cup in 2018. However, the perspective for 2014 is rather better than in 2013.
