  • Higher tourism specialization, better Hotel Industry efficiency?
    International journal of hospitality management, 2020
    Co-Authors: Dapeng Zhang, Lingxu Zhou
    Abstract:

    Abstract This study examines the effects of both specialization in tourism and market competition on the efficiency of the Hotel Industry. For this purpose, stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) was employed to evaluate the efficiency of the Hotel Industry on a provincial level in China and to analyze how it is impacted by specialization in tourism and market competition. The results confirm that tourism specialization and market competition exert a synergistic effect on Hotel Industry efficiency in China. This study finds that tourism development as represented by a high level of tourism specialization by a destination does not guarantee high efficiency in Hotels but does enhance the negative effect of market competition on Hotel Industry efficiency. Significant policy and managerial implications stem from these findings.

  • knowledge based resources and innovation in the Hotel Industry
    International Journal of Hospitality Management, 2014
    Co-Authors: Julia Nieves, Agustin Quintana, Javier Osorio
    Abstract:

    Abstract Although the study of innovation in the Hotel Industry is a key issue, little is known about the determinants of innovation in this sector, as most innovation research has focused on manufacturing firms or knowledge-intensive services. Furthermore, although research suggests that knowledge is a critical asset for achieving innovation performance, few studies have explored how knowledge operates in the Hotel Industry. This paper aims to provide empirical evidence about the role played by a set of knowledge-based resources in determining innovation activity in tourist accommodation firms. Data from 109 companies operating Hotels in Spain suggest that intangible assets should be considered in this sector when attempting to explain the innovation capacity of firms.
