Nigeria hotel and tourism data

Use the figures with their dates.

Reliable, recent hospitality data is not published in one consistent national series. This page brings together the strongest public figures available from the World Bank and Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics, without treating older data as if it describes today’s market.

For an operator, the value is context: where international demand has been recorded, how travel receipts have moved, and how accommodation and food services have appeared in national economic reporting.

Methodology and sources

A small set of checkable statistics.

Figures are presented exactly as reported by their original publisher. The World Bank series attributes its tourism data to UN Tourism. Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics publishes the accommodation and food-services figures within its GDP reporting.

Different reporting periods and definitions should not be compared as though they are one measure. In particular, international arrivals, international tourism receipts and the accommodation-and-food-services sector describe different parts of the economy.
