Abstract

Customer satisfaction is one of the indicators that show the quality of any business. In a hotel operation, it is the hotel guest who has the expectedly objective evaluation of its service. Practically, hotels invited their guests to rate their satisfaction toward overall hotel services through guest comment card. While they are essential, little is known about how hotels manage the data obtained from guest comment card. As such, this study aimed to enrich the understanding of hotel customer satisfaction measurement. Data were collected from 16 Hotel Managers in Bali and were analyzed qualitatively. The study revealed that all hotels used online and offline guest comment to understand how guests perceived their services. Mostly, for offline survey, the Housekeeping staffs were assigned to put and collect the data from the hotel guests. For the online survey, the Front Office staff suggested the guest to complete the online form upon their departure. Data were then shared to all hotel departments for further actions. Only a few hotels performed a thorough measurement and analysis on the data. Discussion and recommendation are provided in the paper as well as limitation and avenue for future study.
