| The number of tourists in Slovakia dropped by 7.9 percent year-on-year in 2014, according to the latest figures from the Slovak Statistics Office (Ú) as announced by the Slovak Tourism Board (SACR).
Skiing usually attracts a large numbers of tourists to Slovakia, and the fall was mainly due to the mild winter, swings in the values of the currencies of surrounding countries versus the euro and the conflict in Ukraine, the TASR newswire quoted the SACR on March 21.
In total 3.73 million people spent a holiday in Slovakia last year, of which 1.48 million were foreigners and 2.25 million were Slovaks. The respective total number was over 4 million in 2013, which was a record. The largest number of foreigners came from the Czech Republic (nearly 437,000), followed by Poles (over 158,00) and Germans (around 138,500).
