sometimes the complete absence of vacant rooms in Belarusian hotels, especially
in the summer. And this is holding back the growth of domestic and inbound
tourism. Infrastructure development is one of the key tasks in the sphere of
Belarusian hospitality. At the same time, Belarusian hotels are undergoing
standardization to determine their "star rating".
