Department for Transport: Hotels
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many nights were spent in hotels by Departmental staff in financial year 2024-25 by the star rating of the hotel.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
In 2024-25 16,510 nights were booked in hotels by DfT staff. The Department’s travel booking system does not include or record star ratings. This figure may include some bookings that were later cancelled. All staff are required to book accommodation via a central booking system within the Department’s travel & subsistence policy.
