Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Dear authors,

The methodology is very concise and has no analysis data other than spatial description and location characteristics.

In this article, the area is mostly described and a very brief methodology is written, and there is no other data for analysis other than spatial description and expression of site characteristics.
I think this description is very simple and the analysis needed for the socio-economic situation of the region and the improvement of tourism conditions during the pandemic is not covered in this article.

Reviewer 3 Report

The study presents a current and relevant theme for tourism. However, it lacks methodological rigour. The methodology does not indicate how and when the data was collected. Furthermore, it was not explained how the data analysis was carried out.

The major focus of the study was on the presentation of the study objects (Hévíz and Zalakaros) and little on the data collected.

The discussion of the data was not presented. Thus, the document looks like a report without revealing any conclusions or recommendations.

For the paper to be accepted, a detailed revision is needed, better explaining the methodology and deepening the discussion of the results. It is necessary to present what the implications of the results are for the development of tourism in the cities studied.

Reviewer 3 Report

Although some requested corrections have been made, the article still does not present the discussion, only changing the title to results does not indicate a discussion, which is one of the assumptions of a scientific article. Regarding the methodology, it is not clear how the treatment of the collected data was made, for example, was it descriptive statistics? It is necessary to clarify this.
