Analysis of some renewable energy uses and demand side measures for hotels on small Mediterranean islands: A case study

2018

Abstract Tourist activity strongly influences the energy consumption and the overall load profile of communities with isolated energy systems. One example is hotel sectors on small islands that are not connected to mainland energy distribution grids. The use of solar energy systems could be a smart option for reducing energy consumption and tackling seasonal fluctuation. The operation of a weak and isolated electric grid requires attention to the management of power profiles in very short time frames. Energy storage (thermal or electric), as well as building automation control technologies, can be utilised for these aims. In this context, the present paper illustrates a study conducted at a…

Antecedentes de las consultas de boca-oído online sobre hoteles

2017

Las consultas online sobre productos y servicios antes de la compra han recibido menor atención en la literatura que la generación de comentarios después de la experiencia. Nuestro trabajo aborda, por tanto, el estudio de la conducta de boca-oído online desde la perspectiva del receptor. El objetivo es investigar las variables que contribuyen en la adopción de boca-oído online para tomar la decisión de elección de un hotel. Para ello, se analiza la cadena de relaciones “motivaciones→intención de consultar→volumen→adopción”, considerando tres tipos de motivaciones: conveniencia, riesgo y sociales. Con una muestra de 393 huéspedes de hoteles de 3, 4 y 5 estrellas y a partir de un modelo de ec…

This paper aims to clarify the role of leadership and emotional intelligence in the motivational process of employees in the hotel industry. A review of relevant literature is done before a tentative model is presented to experts from the fields of leadership, emotional intelligence and the hotel industry to get their view on the constructed relations. After having been approved by the experts, the model has been tested with structuring equation modelling (SEM) based on a quantitative research among employees and leaders of the hotel industry in Germany. The positive relation among leadership and motivation as well as the moderating effect of emotional intelligence could be substantiated.

Design tra storia e contemporaneo. Art Design Gallery Hotel a Palermo

2010

A Palermo, Suite d’Autore è una galleria, dove gli artisti propongono opere in esposizione e per la vendita; è un museo sulla storia del design, dov’è possibile apprezzare uno svolgimento progettuale che va dal Liberty al contemporaneo attraverso arredi di grande fascino storico ma ancora attualissimi; è una struttura ricettiva, certo, dov’è possibile pernottare e immergere l’occhio in uno scenario da sogno; è una autentica Wunderkammer, una camera delle meraviglie! Qui tutto è progettato ad hoc, secondo uno specifico tema di progetto, nella convinzione che rendere ogni camera diversa dall’altra possa rappresentare per l’ospite uno stimolo sempre nuovo, dove si combinano comfort, attrattiva…
