Climate change has gradually impacted many sectors including the hotel industry. For the hotel industry climate change has meant changing demands of tourists to stay in hotels. These have affected hotel revenue and development. Although increasing research of climate change has occurred the few studies carried out focus on issues related to hotel efficiency and its impact on climate change. Researchers believe that efficiency is an important factor that influences decision making of a hotel organization in a changing industry environment. The purpose of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework for highly efficient hotel operations to address the impacts of climate change. The proposed framework is not only meant to find adaptive solutions but more importantly to provide insights to hotel managements to be prepared before actual climate changes occur. Inputs and outputs in data envelopment analysis (DEA) will determine the efficiency of hotel operations in determining the hotel benchmark.

Abstract

Climate change has gradually impacted many sectors including the hotel industry. For the hotel industry climate change has meant changing demands of tourists to stay in hotels. These have affected hotel revenue and development. Although increasing research of climate change has occurred the few studies carried out focus on issues related to hotel efficiency and its impact on climate change. Researchers believe that efficiency is an important factor that influences decision making of a hotel organization in a changing industry environment. The purpose of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework for highly efficient hotel operations to address the impacts of climate change. The proposed framework is not only meant to find adaptive solutions but more importantly to provide insights to hotel managements to be prepared before actual climate changes occur. Inputs and outputs in data envelopment analysis (DEA) will determine the efficiency of hotel operations in determining the hotel benchmark.
