New Study Maps Hotel Attributes Impact On Travel Booking Decisions.
Munich, Germany and New York, USA - July 1, 2015 TrustYou, the inventor of the Meta-Review™ and global online reputation management leader, and Donna Quadri-Felitti, Director of the School of Hospitality Management at Pennsylvania State University, have released the results of a study to understand which hotel attributes have the biggest impact on travelers' booking decisions. The study used heat-mapping technology to understand which attributes prompted hotel bookings in eight different travel contexts (business travel, family vacation, etc.). The study is available for free download here.
Findings show the complexity of the booking process. To be within a traveler's consideration set, hotels must provide basics like cleanliness and comfort, which are the self-reported most important factors in determining where to stay. However, when presented review "snippets" or excerpts within a booking scenario, travelers often choose a hotel based on other factors relevant to the context in which they are traveling, such as great WiFi for business trips or wonderful rooms when planning a romantic getaway.
"Hotels must understand what travelers want and need in a hotel when making their booking decisions," says Quadri-Felitti. "These self-reported important attributes like cleanliness and comfort are required for a hotel to be a part of a traveler's consideration set. Once a hotel becomes part of the traveler's consideration set by delivering on the "must haves," it can then focus on attributes that actually trigger a traveler to book."
Valuable findings include:

Remember to order spares.
Have enough spare phones to prevent room vacancies and complaints? Make sure to stock plenty of clean, working Cetis hotel phones, and parts for repairs as well. Between normal wear and tear, spills, sticky keys, and frayed cords, stocking extra parts and phones for easy replacement will prevent a lot of hassle in the long run. We recommend stocking an extra 15% of phones for your guestrooms, plus additional cords and handsets for replacements.
