Davos sells mostly through Direct corporate rentals, Booking.com and Airbnb. Davos hotels manage three businesses: WEF contracting, ski holidays and congresses. WEF rooms are usually contracted through the Forum's housing system or directly with companies, at fixed terms a year ahead. Ski season needs weekly pricing and family packages, while congresses at the Congress Centre and medical and scientific meetings support summer and shoulder weeks. Klosters hotels focus on the ski season and loyal returning guests.
WEF demand runs mainly through direct contracts and agencies, not OTAs. For the ski season, Booking.com leads for hotels and apartments, carrying Swiss, German and Dutch guests, while Airbnb and Swiss agencies such as Interhome carry chalets and flats. We keep WEF dates closed on public channels until contracts are settled.
