Over the ten years of its operation, it has obtained the favour of millions of people around the world. The Airbnb Internet portal, which offers the sharing of living spaces and denotes its rapid expansion, is one of the main representatives of the sharing economy. The aim of the work is therefore to find out if Airbnb has an impact on the hotel industry, specifically in the Slovak Republic. The first part which relates to theoretical backgrounds familiarizes the reader about the sharing economy and Airbnb. In the second, analytical part is carried out a descriptive analysis of Airbnb and the hotel industry in Slovakia. Subsequently, individual hypotheses related to the influence of Airbnb on the Slovak hotel industry are analyzed by panel data analysis. In the discussion, the obtained results are further commented on and the potential future development of Airbnb in the state is sketched at the end.
