The main factors for the evaluation of city tourism competitiveness were selected following the logic of the conceptual model of city tourism competitiveness. The importance of internal and external environment factors was estimated in form of weight coefficients through the analysis of expert evaluation results. According to the expert assessment results external and internal environment factors have almost the same importance. Most important factors of external environment affecting city tourism competitiveness are: status of resort, state's monetary policy, education system. Internal environment factors such as travel agencies, theater, zoo are most important.
