Do Ratings Really Matter?
Hotel rating programs are considered to be influential in attracting customers but a recent survey by SQM may show otherwise.
Toronto, Canada, August 08, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Many establishments across the country have hotel rating programs such as AAA, Mobil Travel Guide, Michelin, Canada Select, Green Key and Access Canada. The rating criteria for these programs are based on features such as amenities, cleanliness, location, comfort, service, and value.
Ultimately, such programs are considered the determining factor that influences and attracts customers.
In a recent survey of over 1,000 Canadians, 85% indicated that a hotel rating program does not impact their choice of hotels or accommodations. This is surprising as rating programs are in place to give a competitive edge and enhance hotel appeal.
It seems that ratings are not as important as they are perceived to be.
