The authors obtained answers to the posed research questions. The main conclusion of the article is that the use of tourist accommodation facilities in Poland decreased drastically after the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, which was most noticeable in voivodeships featuring high density of accommodation facilities.
