Abstract

This study uses the data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the modified method Super Efficiency with the assumption of constant returns to scale and increasing returns to scale efficiency of the hotel industry in 31 countries.The data needed is obtained from the results of the survey restores in 2011. Inputs are included; the number of beds, the amount of energy (electricity, water, and fuel), gross capital formation, and compensation paid to employees and dedicated payments. Also, the output is the value added of restores. The results of games, software showed that the hotel operations had efficiently operate in six provinces with the efficiencies of under the constant returns to scale, 12 provinces have the terms of technical performance variable returns to scale and In 6 on the performance scale. The average of technical efficiency in the case of constant returns to scale is 0.75 and in the increasing returns to scale is 0.99. It means that, on average, 66.55 percent of the province should save intheir inputs of the hotel's activities to achieve technical efficiency and they should 69.51 percent save in their inputs of hotel activities to achieve to the technical and scale efficiency.
