Hotel business concept

1.4.1 The concept of accommodation service business

Business in accommodation services is understood as business in accommodation establishments according to the provisions of the Law on Tourism and other forms of accommodation rental services (hourly and overnight stays) operating on the mainland or on the mainland boats for tourist accommodation In other words, the accommodation service business is the provision of services to serve the accommodation needs of short-term and long-term tourists along with other services such as dining, entertainment, health for establishments that provide long-term accommodation facilities such as monthly or annual apartment rentals, they do not belong to the industry that this article deals with but are classified in the Real Estate business.

Accommodation business is the business of providing bedroom rental services of a tourist accommodation establishment In another sense, tourist accommodation business is understood as the business activities of tourist accommodation establishments in providing accommodation, food and other services to satisfy the needs of temporary stay of tourists in a province, a region or a country that develops tourism.

Specific conditions for types of accommodation services:

● For hotels and tourist villages, they must meet the minimum requirements for construction, equipment, services, professional qualifications and foreign languages   of the managers and service staff according to the respective rating standards for hotels and tourist villages for each category, class;

● For tourist villas and tourist apartments, the minimum requirements for equipment and service levels according to the respective rating standards for each type or class must be met;

● For tourist campsites, tourist inns, houses with rooms for tourists to rent, and other tourist accommodation establishments, the equipment must be at least up to the standards of tourist accommodation business.

Features of the accommodation business:

The accommodation business includes the business of two main types of services: accommodation services and additional services These services do not exist in physical form and are provided to customers, in which the largest proportion is still tourists.

In the process of “producing” and selling services, the accommodation business does not create new products nor does it create new value.

The operation of the accommodation facilities through the use of hotel facilities and the service of the staff has helped to gradually transfer value from physical to monetary form in the form of "discounts".

Therefore, the accommodation business is not in the field of material production, but in the field of service business.

Food service is a form of providing services according to the needs of customers in restaurants, hotels This is a wedding party, conference party, event or team building organization Catering is not just about delivering food and implementing the decoration process, consulting the menu list, setting the table or staging sound and light.

● Serving “in-house”:This is the service process in restaurants and hotels. According to the needs of customers with the restaurant, the hotel has separate spaces separate from the business area.

● Outdoor food service:Outdoor party service at the request of customers. Compared to on-site food service, this form will be subject to more challenges and pressures when preparing food, packing and transporting it to the place of service, and cleaning up after eating.

Complementary services are services that restaurants and hotels add with the purpose of providing customers with necessary needs These needs are not mandatory like basic services However, these services must be present in the service business.

The essence of the supplementary service is to add value to the basic service. From there, creating favorable conditions for customers to use basic services. Ancillary services must be synchronously correlated with the underlying service. Role of additional services:

As people's living standards improve, the demand for entertainment and enjoyment also increases Your customers don't just come to the hotel for the purpose of relaxation They also have a need to experience other entertainment services Therefore, additional services are born to satisfy those needs Additional services of restaurants and hotels help customers improve their health Not only that, it also provides customers with beauty care services Meeting the needs of entertainment, updating information, buying and selling products

Additional services are indispensable utilities in restaurants and hotels. Normally, customers go to work, exercise and entertainment activities will be interrupted In order not to interrupt that activity, additional services were born to meet the needs of customers.

The normal tourist season will be seasonal This is also the time when restaurants and hotels make the most profit to compensate for the off-season period. Restaurant revenue is mainly based on this moment If the additional service attracts a potential customer, the probability of the customer returning will be higher.

The additional services that a quality hotel provides to meet the needs of customers is one of the big pluses that determine the choice of customers Since then, the competitiveness of this hotel has been enhanced compared to other hotels.

Characteristics, functions and roles of the hotel business

The most important market segment of the hotel is the tourist, so the hotel business can only be successfully conducted where tourism resources are available. The value and attractiveness of tourism resources also determine the ranking of the hotel Therefore, when investing in hotel business, it is necessary to carefully study the parameters of tourism resources as well as target customer groups and potential customers who are attracted to the tourist destination From there determine the hotel's technical indicators when investing in construction and designing accordingly At the same time, architectural planning, technical facilities of hotels at tourist destinations also enhance or break the value of tourism resources.

Stemming from the requirements for the quality of hotel products, the hotel's technical facilities are also of high quality The luxury of the equipment inside is the reason that pushes the initial investment cost of the hotel project up There are also a number of other factors such as the initial cost of hotel infrastructure, the huge cost of land for the hotel project.

Hotel products are mainly service-based and this service can only be performed by hotel staff On the other hand, hotel workers are highly specialized Labor time is dependent on the time consumed by customers, usually 24/24 hours a day. Therefore, it is necessary to use a large number of direct service workers in the hotel This poses a difficult problem for hotel managers in balancing the relatively high direct labor costs with the hotel's service quality, in addition to difficulties in recruiting use and allocation of human resources.

The hotel business is governed by a number of laws such as natural laws, socio- economic laws, and human psychological laws For example, the dependence on tourism resources, with the cyclical fluctuations of weather, climate creates changes according to certain laws in the value and attractiveness of the resource to tourists. calendar, thereby causing a color change in the hotel business, especially hotels in sea or mountain tourist destinations Regardless of the influence of the law, there are both positive and negative effects in business.

● For a successful hotel business, perfect, synchronous, civilized and modern facilities, equipment and facilities are indispensable The development of tourism depends directly on the development of the hotel business First of all, the technical facilities:

● Developing the hotel system reflects the development - society in the locality. And reflect local and national tourism development

● Hotel revenue accounts for a significant proportion of total tourism revenue.

At the "Hotel Investment and Business Conference in Vietnam" pointed out that the hotel and accommodation industry accounts for 70% of tourism revenue.

● The hotel's technical facilities also represent tourism To attract guests and develop the customer market requires the hotel to have modern facilities and amenities Satisfy the leisure needs of visitors.

● Technical: building for the hotel a separate website with full important functions such as: room class, hotel facilities, restaurant services, spa; online booking system.

Nowadays, people's living standards are greatly improved Along with that is the demand for tourism growing at a fast rate Requires the tourism industry to develop at a faster rate than the growth rate of GDP In which, the hotel business system holds an important position The development of the hotel business leads to the development of the demand for materials and equipment To build hotels and raw materials To provide for tourists increased rapidly These inputs are provided by industry, agriculture, transport and commerce That promotes the development of economic sectors and contributes to the growth rate of GDP.

Contributing to exploiting tourism resources and promoting local economic development

The formation and development of the hotel system is mainly in places with natural resources Therefore, developing the hotel business has the effect of exploiting all potentials in the locality And contributing to the development of the local economy Besides, the development of the hotel business will attract a large number of local specialties and handicrafts as well as a large number of workers. That proves that the hotel business holds an important position in promoting socio- economic development in the locality.

Attracting international visitors is one of the strategic goals of tourism development in general and hotel business development in particular International guests staying at the hotel are growing Then foreign currency revenue increases.That means developing the hotel business doing the export on the spot And contribute to the implementation of the country's export strategy The hotel's local export is more efficient than the overseas export Because the export prices of goods and services on the spot follow international prices Meanwhile, exporting locally reduces many costs Such as testing costs, packaging costs, customs fees, transportation costs, storage costs However, in order for the hotel-tourism business to develop further, the state needs to invest in upgrading traffic infrastructure, reducing traffic jams, developing and expanding airports, and opening new airports.

In addition, it is necessary to improve institutions and policies on investment, create mechanisms and preferential conditions to attract investment capital.

Concept of Service and service characteristics

There are different definitions of service But in general, the definitions agree that services are products of labor, do not exist in the form of objects, the process of production and consumption occurs at the same time, to meet the needs of production and consumption Services are economic products that include work in the form of physical labor, management, knowledge, organizational ability and professional skills to serve the needs of production, business or consumption of customers individuals and organizations According to Philip Kotler, “a service is any activity or benefit that can be provided by one entity to another In which the object provided must be intangible and does not lead to any ownership of an object. The production of a service may or may not be tied to a physical product.” In economics Services are understood as things that are similar to goods but are immaterial There are products that favor tangible products and products that are more of a service product, but most of them are products in the middle of goods and services.

The service has the following characteristics:

+ Intangibility: Humans cannot use the senses to perceive the physico- mechanical properties of the service.

+ Heterogeneity: There are few common standards for assessing service quality.+ Inseparability: The service is provided and consumed at the same time.

+ Non-storage and hoarding: This means it can only last as long as it is made available to the customer.

+ Ownership cannot be transferred: When purchasing a service, the customer is only entitled to use the service and enjoy the benefits that the service brings for a certain period of time only.

European tourists often have a relative understanding of tourism, most of them have travel experience They have relatively high solvency, prefer marine, ecological and cultural tourism They have relatively strict requirements on the quality of tourism products and services.

Asian guests are quite diverse and complex in their national character as well as in communication because there are many cultures, many religions, many different socio-economic conditions In general, Asians have some typical characteristics in common such as:

The importance of etiquette in communication: The etiquette when communicating with Asians is often closely linked with the culture and religion of the community, they consider greetings, proper etiquette as a measure of virtue, and often gestures greetings of Asians are dignified, humble, and lenient; some countries in East Asia, Southeast Asia greet by bowing while in some countries of South Asia, Central Asia, the Middle East, they greet by bowing clasp your hands in front of your chest However, some parts of the population also greet with handshakes, pats, and hugs like Europeans In communication, Asians attach great importance to hierarchy, order, age and social status and often follow the customs of their community.

- Respect for trust: this is a beautiful feature in Eastern culture, religions such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Hinduism, Islam all consider trust to be the most important factor in the relationship between person to person In their relationship, they do not consider the commitment documents (white paper in black ink) like U-Americans, but attach importance to the verbal element of individuals. Asian people are reserved, they are often cautious and reserved in communication Asians have the attribute of often waiting, listening and being cautious, not too hasty, too open-minded In addition, Asians are less likely to go straight to the point, to the content of the story, they often go to the main purpose by way of detour.

Customer satisfaction

Customers will be more satisfied if they can find your products/services when they access the Internet Therefore, you need to create a smooth, convenient access process for customers to more easily reach The simple access process is an effective solution to help businesses conquer customer satisfaction from the first step In addition, businesses need to ensure that the system supports customers via the Internet when they need it This will help customers make better purchasing decisions.

Staff communication skills are the next factor to promote customer satisfaction. Professional consultations or helpful phone conversations are a great way to get customers to appreciate your business better.

Currently, product quality is no longer the "ultimate" factor determining customer satisfaction Customer care service before, during and after the sale has become a new competitive option that many businesses choose.

Each field and industry will have its own specialized terminology These terms are often used to describe the product/service they offer However, if the business uses too much jargon, it will be difficult for customers to connect with your product/service Therefore, the next factor that makes customers satisfied is the closeness and ease of understanding from articles and descriptions of products/services of businesses Therefore, you need to convey the message to the customer in the most specific and simple way.

"First distance, second speed", time is always a precious resource of each of us.

So you can't make the customer spend too much time waiting for your response In the context of digital technology and the impact of the pandemic, the trend of online shopping is increasing Most customers often contact businesses through online platforms Therefore, businesses need to have a 24/7 online consulting team to receive messages or calls from customers as quickly as possible.

The cumbersome procurement process and complicated procedures are a big

"barrier" separating customers from your business For example, the installment service when shopping for your business has to go through many steps such as: calling to relatives, verifying identity, position, income, etc Such a cumbersome shopping process is very cumbersome easy to make customers feel uncomfortable. This is not only time consuming but also adversely affects the customer experience. Building a shopping process that is convenient yet safe for both parties is the best way for you to maintain a good relationship with your customers.

This is a factor that cannot be ignored when it comes to customer satisfaction.

A high-quality product/service always creates "magic" to attract consumers' shopping needs Businesses that provide quality products/services will create long- term and sustainable value This is also the point that makes your business stand out in the market.

Besides product quality, price is also a determining factor in customer satisfaction There will always be 3 prices that customers can choose from: low, mid-range and high-range prices In particular, customers often prioritize products with low and mid-range prices You can price products/services based on the value and features they provide The best way is that you should trade products with many different prices for customers to easily choose A stable and reasonable price is the reason to come back to your store again and again.

Conquer customer satisfaction with promotions and incentives applied by many businesses In a year, businesses can organize from 1 to 5 gratitude and promotion programs to attract customers The scale of campaigns can be large or small depending on the purpose and time of the organization However, customers will certainly appreciate businesses that regularly have attractive incentive programs and promotions.

Crowd psychology always creates a certain impact on customers A business with a strong user community is easier to win customer trust and satisfaction For example, Apple This second largest technology corporation in the world has conquered millions of customers not only because of product quality, but also because of the crowd effect The user community of this corporation is so strong that it makes businesses around the world "tilt in awe".

1.8.2 The relationship between customer satisfaction and business service The relationship between satisfaction to business service is a topic that has been continuously discussed by researchers over the past decades Many studies on customer satisfaction in service industries have been carried out Some authors believe that there is an overlap between service quality and customer satisfaction, so these two concepts can be However, through many studies, service quality and customer satisfaction are two distinguishing concepts Parasuraman et al (1993), argue that between service quality and customer satisfaction There are some differences in customer satisfaction, the main difference being the issue of "cause and effect" And Zeithaml and Bitner (2000) argue that customer satisfaction is affected by many factors such as product quality, service quality, price, situational factors, and personal factors.

Service quality and satisfaction are two different concepts but closely related in service research (Parasuraman et al 1988) Previous studies have shown that service quality is the cause of satisfaction (Cronin and Taylor, 1992; Spreng and Taylor,

1996) The reason is that service quality is related to service delivery, while satisfaction can only be assessed after using the service Customer satisfaction as an outcome, service quality as a cause, satisfaction is predictive and expected; Service quality is an ideal standard Customer satisfaction is a general concept, expressing their satisfaction when consuming a service Meanwhile, service quality only focuses on specific components of the service (Zeithaml & Bitner, 2000) Although there is a relationship between service quality and satisfaction, there are few studies focusing on testing the explanatory level of service quality components for satisfaction, especially for specific service industries (Lassar et al., 2000) Cronin and Taylor tested this relationship and concluded that perceived service quality leads to customer satisfaction Studies have concluded that service quality is an antecedent of satisfaction (Cronin and Taylor, 1992; Spereng, 1996) and a major factor affecting satisfaction (Ruyter, Bloemer, 1997).

In summary, service quality is a factor that greatly affects customer satisfaction.

If a service provider provides customers with quality products that satisfy their needs, that network operator has stepped up First make customers satisfied. Therefore, to improve customer satisfaction, service providers must improve service quality.

(Source: Caravelle Hotel 2022 Statistical Report)

Looking at the survey results, we see that 36.7% of the comments rated the hall as modern and very modern But up to 53.3% of the reviews are normal Although the difference is not high, this shows that guests are still not really satisfied with the equipment in the lobby Although the area is relatively comfortable, there is still a lack of spaces that make the hotel stand out, such as the characteristic image of the hotel, which is absent The chandelier system is too simple, not creating the hotel's own highlight.

Corresponding to the opinions about the level of modernity, most guests think that the equipment in the hall is not really arranged harmoniously and beautifully.There are 35.8% rating the lobby at the level of harmony and very harmony, while54.2% are of the average rating, even 10% of tourists think that The arrangement of equipment in the hall is not harmonious and beautiful Perhaps due to the space of the hall, especially the two sides of the reception, the tables and chairs are not luxurious, the reception area has not been properly invested Perhaps it has not yet been able to bring the culture of the Vietnamese people to harmonize with the modern level of the hall.

When analyzing the guest reviews affecting the facilities in the guest hall, we found that international guests, especially Asians, think that the hotel layout of such equipment is quite good However, the average level of visitors for the decoration of the hotel lobby is still not good, it is still in the normal range and is not satisfied with the layout of equipment inside the hotel I think, the hotel needs to pay more attention to investing in the hall area to be more synchronized, and at the same time to redecorate this area to be more beautiful, in order to save visitors a beautiful image of the hotel.

Dress is a very important factor, is the first impression when guests come into contact with the reception Therefore, choosing and stipulating the dress code for employees is a job that should be considered and chosen by managers to harmonize with the space of the hall.

40.8% of guests' opinions said that the reception had nice and very nice clothes, but the number of reviews was normal, accounting for nearly half of the comments, and it was surprising that 12.5% said that the The dress is not pretty This is understandable because the female staff here, although wearing ethnic ao dai, but the colors are faded, not eye-catching, sometimes at the front desk, two types of uniforms appear at the same time, with little attention to makeup We can see that the dress of the hotel reception is really underappreciated The reason for this is that international guests love the Ao Dai of the Vietnamese people, so as long as the staff wears ao dai, most of them will rate it as beautiful, but the receptionist here rarely wears it Ao Dai And this has also been shown very clearly in the opinions of domestic guests when asked about the dress code of the reception.

But it must also be admitted frankly that the hotel management has not really cared about the dress of the receptionist, nor has there been any mandatory measure in the regulation of uniforms for the front desk staff It is often said that "packaging, brand is the silent seller of the product", the front desk staff plays a very important role in selling products to customers, the first person that customers contact to make a purchase decision Therefore, it is necessary to see the importance of reception attire because it is also a factor that affects the decision to buy hotel products.

The spirit and service attitude of the staff, especially the front desk staff, are very susceptible to psychological pressure, easily influenced by private emotions. The style and service attitude of the front desk staff is evaluated well or not because of the sincerity, enthusiasm and thoughtfulness in service regulations.

When asked about your opinion when being greeted politely at the reception, up to 90% of guests are very satisfied and satisfied, this shows that the service attitude of the reception here is very good highly appreciated However, there are still 10% of opinions that it is normal, including 2 Europeans, 1 American and 2 Asian guests.

Serving European and American guests needs attention, gentleness and courtesy. Asian guests at Caravelle Saigon hotel are mainly Singaporean, Korean and Japanese guests, their temperaments are quite mild and pleasant, but there are still a few comments about the polite reception of the staff here Normally, the receptionist needs to try harder in the attitude of welcoming guests.

Customers are satisfied and very satisfied, accounting for 52.33% Meanwhile, there are 46.51% of opinions that it is normal These cases fell on Thai and Japanese guests, French and American visitors And there is 1 opinion of Thai guests who are not satisfied with the foreign language level of the front desk staff.

As we all know Thai people often speak little English when traveling, so the front desk staff at Caravelle Saigon Hotel needs to add more Thai language skills to minimize the language gap between visitors and staff .

In addition, the hotel is currently focusing on the European and Thai markets, so the training of existing foreign languages and the expansion of new foreign languages will be the core conditions for the front desk staff improve hotel satisfaction.

Regarding the speed of processing room registration procedures for guests, up to 11.7% said that it was normal and 0.8% of comments were not satisfied At Caravelle Saigon Hotel, due to the characteristics of the source of guests from travel agents, most of the visitors are group guests and are booked indirectly through travel agents The process of receiving room registration at the hotel is relatively professional and thoughtful The staff are always flexible and serve customers enthusiastically But with the above investigation results, this means that there is still a situation where guests have to wait when checking in Receptionists need to pay attention to this reception It is important to understand that waiting is always frustrating and annoying for customers.
