Hotel bookings by Japanese tourists – who’re somewhat squeamish about tumults – collapsed by 56% in the first quarter from a year earlier, according to a statement by the tourism board of Paris on Monday.
Hotel bookings by Russians plunged 35%.
Hotel bookings by Chinese tourists, on whom all hopes had been pinned, the biggest growth factor in the industry, with a record 1.2 million showing up in Paris last year – well, they fell 14%.
Hotel bookings for June through August have plunged 20% to 50% year-over-year, Evelyne Maes, head of the UMIH-Paris-Ile de France hotel federation, told Reuters.

That's easy. The answer is right-wing extremism.
You see, when you send the message out that you don't want to take in refugees, you are telling the whole world that you hate everyone who is not part of the social construct of "French citizen." Of course, nobody wants to visit some hateful racist, xenophobic place where as an innocent tourist you are subject to hostile abuse.
