Location factors for budget, medium standard and luxury hotels based on the example of hotels operating in Poland
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2019, Vol 29, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of this article is to indicate the most important factors determining the location of newly built hotels in Poland in 2000–2009, belonging to different groups in the hotel categorization system. We use a two-stage empirical study. The main statistical method applied is stepwise logistic regression with the backward elimination of regressors. The results of the study indicate clearly that there are differences between the location factors for hotels according to their standard. The factors determining the location of budget hotels differ from those influencing the group of medium standard and luxury hotels. The results contribute to a better understanding of the motives of investors when selecting a location and may have implications for economic policies, since they can focus the attention of local and regional authorities on important determinants of attractiveness to local investment.

Efficiency measurement in dynamic two-stage network structures with flexible intermediate materials
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric method for evaluating the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) described by multiple inputs and multiple outputs. Since DEA was introduced in the 1970s, i...
Perturbation algorithm for a minimax regret minimum spanning tree problem
The problem of finding a robust spanning tree has been analysed. The problem consists of determining a minimum spanning tree of a graph with uncertain edge costs. We should determine a spanning tree that minimizes the di...
Informatics systems of decision support and analysis of their security
A new approach to security issues associated with the use of teleinformatics systems in the deci-sion-making process has been presented. There is a discussion of the relationship between the security of informatics syste...
On types of responsiveness in the theory of voting
In mathematics, monotonicity is used to denote the nature of the connection between variables. Hence for example, a variable is said to be a monotonically increasing function of another variable if an increase in the val...
Two procedures for robust monitoring of probability distributions of economic data stream induced by depth functions
Data streams (streaming data) consist of transiently observed, evolving in time, multidimensional data sequences that challenge our computational and/or inferential capabilities. We propose user friendly approaches for r...
