Thumbs up Answer: Count no of nights between dates

To count the number of nights stayed at a hotel, follow these steps:
  1. In a new cell, enter the formula: =DATEDIF(start_date, end_date, "d")
    Replace "start_date" with the cell reference of the first date in your row 1, and "end_date" with the cell reference of the last date in your row 1.
  2. Press Enter to calculate the number of days between the start and end dates.
  3. To convert the number of days to the number of nights, subtract 1 from the result. This is because the check-in day is not counted as a night, but the check-out day is.
  4. To count the number of nights stayed at the hotel, you can use the COUNTIF function. Enter the formula: =COUNTIF(row_2, "x")
    Replace "row_2" with the row number where you have marked "x" for the nights stayed at the hotel.
  5. Press Enter to calculate the number of nights stayed at the hotel.
  6. To combine the two formulas, enter the formula: =DATEDIF(start_date, end_date, "d")-1-COUNTIF(row_2, "x")
    This will give you the number of nights stayed at the hotel between the start and end dates.
