Also, about the Song Contest, many Russian hotels have put their prices up ! 20 to 30% from May 10 to 16, according to the newspaper "Kommersant". "This year, the Eurovision Song Contest may be a way for Moscow's hotels to earn more money" the journalist said. "The occupied rooms have gone back to 52%, losing 14 points."
The same phenomenon happened during the football Champions League in 2008, but the Antimonopol Federal Service of Russia didn't interfere. This time, according to the Russian newspaper, there should have been an illegal plan between hotel owners, veryfing the situation.
