While hotel owners cite a drop in bookings in some areas, the French government insisted on Thursday that the overall picture for the tourism industry remains rosy, and promised a 'great season' for visitors despite the simmering discontent.
Officials from the Ministry of Economy and Finance held a meeting on Thursday with representatives of the tourism industry to discuss the consequences that the nationwide unrest following Nahel's death has had on France's tourist activity and international image.
