German term or phrase: Doppelbelegungsfaktor
Doppelbelegungsfaktor ist die Überschrift für folgenden Absatz: (es geht um mit 2 Personen belegte Zimmer, aber wie könnte man das "wirtschaftlich" ausdrücken?)

Auf der Basis der 135 zur Verfügung stehenden Zimmer und Suiten wurde für die einzelnen Zimmerkategorien ermittelt, welche Einzel- bzw. Doppelbelegungen zu erwarten sind.

Daraus errechnet sich ein Doppelbelegungsfaktor von 1,67. Das bedeutet, dass im Jahresdurchschnitt aller vermieteten Zimmer und Suiten 67% mit zwei Personen (Doppelzimmer) und 33% mit einer Person (Einzelzimmer) belegt sind
