한국인은 선정 대상 국가에 들어있지 않았습니다만, 몇 위 정도 들어갈까 궁금하군요.

In a first-annual survey, Expedia asked 4,000 hoteliers their opinions of various nationalities. The Japanese got the most praise. Americans tied with Thai tourists for an unimpressive 11th place.
Of course, hotel owners and managers have different concerns than fellow tourists. So American travelers may have their own opinions.
The World's Best Tourists, Ranking From Best to Worst, 2008
1. Japanese
2. German/British (tie) (The Germans were considered the tidiest of all nationalities.)
3. Canadian (The most popular tourists in their own country were the Canadians as well.)
4. Swiss
5. Dutch
6. Australian/Swedish (tie)
7. Belgian
8. Norwegian
9. Austrian/Danish/Finnish (tie)
10. New Zealanders (Kiwi)
11. U.S. American/Thai (tie)
12. Irish/Czech/South African/Portugese (tie)
13. Brazilian
14. Italian/Greek/Polish (tie)
15. Turkish
16. Spanish
17. Mexican
18. Russian
19. French ...The French didn't do too well, coming in, as you can see at 19th. They were seen as the most “fiscally conservative,” presumably when it comes to such matters as tipping.
20. Indian
21. Chinese
The point of the survey, at least for Expedia, is to advertise its summer sale of up to 30 percent off its travel products and packages (expedia.com/summersale).
