Paris hotels VS Rome hotels

Price differences between Rome and Paris, re: Hotel Price Index.
In my previous post I was stressing how surprising it is that hotel prices in Rome should be higher than Paris, looking at the difference in tourist inflows between the two capitals which go in the reverse order.
I wanted to add some more data to the above reasoning. I think a more subtle way to look at it, beside official tourist influx statistics (which have Paris 5 times more visited than Rome) is the number of queries on google where hotel rome gets an average search result of 1,000,000 per month (the most requested broad search on rome hotels) and hotel paris gets 2,240,000. Therefore we're looking at a figure slightly higher than the double, which frankly, looking at hotel prices makes more sense.
The next question is, if were getting closer to believing that we're looking at double demand, what it the offer on the table?
Paris Tourist Bureau says:
Paris has the widest choice of hotels in the world with a full range of prices, offering something for everyone. Choose from around 75,000 rooms in some 2,000 hotels, aparthotels, camp sites and other al fresco options, youth centres, apartment rentals or accommodation in private homes.
Regarding Rome I quote the NYTimes
Rome boasts 720 hotels and pensions with nearly 60,000 beds in more than 30,000 rooms. Most are in the medium-priced and upscale brackets (three stars to five stars in official listings); fewer than one fifth of all beds are in no-frills two-star and one-star hotels and boarding houses (or pensions).
So finally it all falls into place, Paris has 1,2 more tourists requests and roughly 1,5 more hotel accommodations.
Which of them capital cities needs our vacation rental services more than? I still think it's Rome.
