Service Excellence in Tourism and Hospitality

Service excellence is about delivering to the customer expectation, and then meeting and slightly exceeding that expectation. Service operations management in the tourism and hospitality industry requires a high level of coordination, communication and facilitation to satisfy visitors. In all of these activities, service excellence means a lot to visitors in terms of their experience, and to the business it means repeat customers and word-of-mouth marketing. This book analyses important drivers of service excellence in the tourism and hospitality industry. The book is meant as a reference and supplementary reading for students, researchers and industry practitioners. See more
