After receiving the green light to increase the VAT for hotel accommodation, according to unofficial information, around 20 small hotels have already changed their category to guesthouses and private accommodation.

Is the "gray economy" coming back to the big door? Can our market bear a new price increase in tourism? Will there be a reduction in the wages of employees and will hoteliers have to work in the winter period?

Our guests are Sanja Marković, Board of Tourism and Hospitality Association of the Chamber of Commerce, Nikola Pejović, President of the Hotel Association of Montenegro and Biljana Dabić, journalist and owner of a travel agency.
