ABOUT THESE DATA CUBES

These data cubes present results from the March quarter 2005 Survey of Tourist Accommodation (STA) for the following categories of establishments:

  • licensed hotels and resorts with facilities and 5 or more rooms
  • motels, private hotels and guest houses with facilities and 5 or more rooms
  • serviced apartments with 5 or more units
  • caravan parks with 40 or more powered sites
  • holiday flats, units and houses of letting entities with 15 or more rooms or units
  • visitor hostels with 25 or more bed spaces.

CHANGES IN THIS ISSUE

The scope of the quarterly STA was expanded from March quarter 2005. Caravan parks, holiday flats, units and houses and visitor hostels, as defined above, are now in scope of the survey, and the size cut-off for licensed hotels and resorts, motels and guest houses, and serviced apartments has been reduced from 15 rooms to 5 rooms.

Data by tourism region and state/territory star grade are no longer presented in the publication Tourist Accommodation, Australia (cat. no. 8635.0). These data are included in the new data cube Tourist Accommodation, Small Area Data, Australia (cat. no. 8635.0.55.002).

The confidentiality rules in place previously now apply across the entire STA collection. For hotels, motels and serviced apartments, data released from the 15 or more room series has been maximised, with consequential confidentialisation applied to the total 5 or more room series as much as possible. Note that this has not always been possible and therefore it may be that data available for a particular category of establishment previous to the expansion of the scope of the STA has now been suppressed in one or more subsequent quarters.
