This essay places its focus on the necessity of identifying levels of socially responsible behavior implementation in hotel companies with the aim of improving tourism product and sustainable development of Montenegro. The overall objective of the research is to get through the aspect of corporate social responsibility to help hotel enterprises in Montenegro to better position themselves in the minds of consumers on wider tourism market and improve their competitive advantage. Traditional Montenegrin code of social behavior expressed in humanity gives a proper interpretation of social responsibility - "Humanity means protecting others from ourselves", of course, translated into the framework of modern business.
