Motivations for hotels to undertake pro-ecological activities – opinions of hotel guests

The cognitive objective of this paper is to assess the motives driving hotel owners and managers to implement environmentally friendly actions from the perspective of hotel guests. The empirical aim of the study materialises through investigations conducted on a sample of 1317 hotel guests in four provincial cities in Poland: Warsaw, Cracow, Wroclaw, and Opole. The study encompassed guests of six hotels classified as three-star establishments. The research methodology employed herein is a diagnostic survey using a questionnaire designed by the authors of this study. The survey was conducted between June and September 2021. In the concluding section of the paper, the analysis of the research allows for the formulation of conclusions. Among these conclusions, a notable observation is the assertion that guests have a remarkably low awareness regarding the impact of hotels on the natural environment. This finding contradicts the more optimistic assessments of such awareness that are found in various works within the field of hospitality. According to the authors, this conclusion could form the basis for educational initiatives and the initiation of mechanisms, including economic ones, aimed at elevating the knowledge level in this domain, not solely among hotel guests but also, perhaps predominantly, among hotel proprietors and managers. Nevertheless, the authors of this paper are cognizant of the exploratory nature of the conducted study, which may serve as a convenient foundation for subsequent, more in-depth investigations, particularly focusing on expanding the array of applied methodologies, significantly increasing the research sample size, and considering a broader range of respondent characteristics in the research.

Profitability performance under capital structure and other company characteristics

The main objective of this paper is to explore how capital structure and other financial characteristics of companies influence Croatian hotel industry performance. This study’s key goal is to analyze the debt-equity structure of hotel industry and to demonstrate its correlation with financial performance. The high significance and impact of hotel industry on the economy in Croatia was main reason why authors opted to investigate it. This study was carried out using panel data methodology on a sample of 19 Croatian hotel companies listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange during the period of 2003-2017. Return on assets and return on equity were used as performance proxies and dependent variables. Twelve variables as capital structure measures and other company characteristics – cash ratio, current liquidity ratio, structure ratio, debt ratio, debt factor (in years), equity to non-current assets, total assets turnover, current assets turnover, accounts receivables, activity ratio, return on revenue and crises during the 2009-2015 period – were used as independent variables. The findings suggest that cash ratio, structure ratio, debt factor (in years), equity to non-current assets, total assets turnover, activity ratio, accounts receivables, return on revenue and crises in the 2009-2015 period are related to the financial performance of the Croatian hotel industry. Although profitability performance theory and influence of capital structure and other company characteristic on it is widely studied in financial literature, there are not many studies examining the hotel industry, especially in Croatia. Finally, this study should provide managers with additional insights in making optimal financial decisions.

호텔 인적자원관리가 근무환경 만족과 직무몰입에 미치는 영향 : 서울 시내 5성급 호텔을 중심으로

본 연구의 목적은 선행연구를 바탕으로 호텔 인적자원관리와 직원의 근무환경, 직무몰입과의 관계를 알아보고, 요인 간의 실증 분석을 통하여 인적자원관리의 중요성과 시사점 및 직무에 몰입할 수 있는 실무적인 개선안을 제시하고자 한다. 표본선정은 서울지역 5성급 호텔 6곳을 무작위 선정하였으며, 자료수집은 2018년 6월 1일부터 1개월 동안 설문지 240부를 배포하여 이 중 222부를 최종 분석하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 호텔 인적자원관리와 근무환경 만족, 즉 직원 동료와의 관계, 급여와 복지, 상사와의 관계는 근무환경 만족에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 인적자원관리와 직무몰입, 즉 직원 동료와의 관계, 급여와 복지, 상사와의 관계, 사내교육이 직무몰입에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 호텔직원의 근무환경 만족은 직무몰입에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 호텔 직원의 직장 내에서 느끼는 직원들 간의 의사소통, 근로한 만큼의 보상금, 상사와 직원 간의 업무협조에 대한 긍정적인 인식은 근무환경에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 근무 중에 느끼는 호텔 인적자원관리는 직원의 근무환경에 대한 만족, 조직몰입에 상관관계가 있다고 할 수 있다. 시사점으로는 호텔 인적자원 관리, 직원의 근무환경 만족, 직무몰입이 호텔기업의 경영목표와도 직접적인 관계가 있음을 나타내고 있다.

Impact of hotels’ sustainability practices on guest attitudinal loyalty: application of loyalty chain stages theory

ABSTRACTConsidering the significance of the term “green” in the hotel industry, relatively little is known about hotels’ performances of conservation management and its impact on guest eco-friendly decision formation. This research was conducted to explicate guests’ attitudinal loyalty formation, by developing a sturdy theoretical framework encompassing their perceived hotel performances of green management (recycling and waste reduction, water saving, and energy conservation) and loyalty chain stages theory (cognitive, affective, and conative stages). A total of twelve attributes of hotel performances were identified through a qualitative approach. Our results from the structural analysis revealed that guests’ perceived hotel performances of water saving and energy conservation significantly influenced their attitudinal loyalty formation for green hotels. In addition, the significant mediating role of cognitive and affective stages was uncovered. Moreover, the effectiveness of loyalty chain stages theory was demonstrated. Our theoretical framework sufficiently accounted for the variance in conative loyalty.

“Where you do it” matters: The impact of hotels’ revenue-management implementation strategies on performance

This study explores RM strategic implementation approaches, addressing the question of whether the RM function should be performed within the hotel property, or should be outsourced to an outside entity such as corporate, regional office or a third party. Using a random sample of 602 US hotels, the study analyzed the hotels’ RevPAR Index over varying periods and the hotels’ self-reported RM implementation strategy. The findings suggest that hotel characteristics such as size and scale affect their decision on where to perform the RM function. More importantly, we find that this strategic implementation decision impact the hotel’s level of performance compared to its competitive set: corporate and centralized RM functions outperform in-house and third party. Interestingly, the findings indicate that a mixed strategy, one that combines implementation strategies, is associated with the highest RevPAR index.

What is the impact of hotels on local economic development? Applying value chain analysis to individual businesses

The impact of mainstream tourist hotels on destination economies is clearly an important question for public policy-makers wishing to develop robust tourism policy. We adapt the methodology of value chain analysis to measure the local economic impact of a large, single tourism enterprise, to show how to generate commercially realistic data using the example of an analysis of a 1000 room all-inclusive resort in southern Turkey in partnership with TUI UK and Ireland. The data break down package revenues according to their beneficiaries and identifies areas for improvement. We further report and reflect on a 6-month evaluation of a tour operator-hotel partnership to deliver on a set of positive recommendations arising from the date to improve future impact.
