MADRID, Aug. 24 (Xinhua) -- The coronavirus pandemic continues to take its toll on Spain's hotel sector despite the ending of the State of Alarm and the return to free movement in the country at the end of June.
Although the country's tourism sector was widely expected to recover in July, a report published by the Spanish Statistical Office (INE) on Monday shows that hotel occupancy rates were lagging as foreign tourists failed to arrive and domestic tourist numbers were below normal levels.
