People from Norway who spent Rs10,438 and Singapore who settled for Rs10,150 per room a night were the ones that followed the Swiss on the survey list.

Domestic hotel guests in India paid an extra 6% which is around Rs4,950 in the first six months of 2013 as compared to last year, the survey claimed.

The survey report said, ""Indian travellers paid more for their hotel rooms in more than two-thirds of the countries included in the Hotel Price Index (HPI) with many double-digit increases as the rupee continued to fall in value. When travelling abroad between January and June 2013, Indian travellers were at ranked 19 in the table of biggest spenders with an average figure of Rs8,216 a night."
