Spatial and temporal dynamics in hotel demand resilience
研究了亚洲目的地酒店需求韧性在疫情不同阶段的时空变化，发现韧性溢出效应在冲击初期更强，且地方政策严格度对酒店韧性有异质性影响。
Purpose This study aims to extend the conceptualization of hotel demand resilience from the spatial and temporal perspectives and operationalize the conceptualization by developing a systematic analytical framework to comprehensively examine the spatial and temporal dynamics hotel demand resilience. Design/methodology/approach To operationalize the extended conceptualization of hotel demand resilience, this study extends the standard spatial model by integrating time-varying features to accurately capture the spatial and temporal dynamics of hotel demand resilience among Asian destinations as a panel. Findings The spillover interaction of hotel demand resilience varied as the pandemic evolved, with a higher magnitude at the beginning of the shock. Breaking down the analysis of policy stringency and hotel resilience at the local level reveal heterogeneous policy effects. Research limitations/implications This study offers practical insights for hotel industry stakeholders by highlighting how varying levels of demand resilience across Asian destinations in response to crises can inform more effective crisis management and recovery strategies, emphasizing the importance of spatial collaboration, policy alignment and diversification of tourist source markets. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to apply a time-varying parameter spatial modeling framework to tourism and hospitality research. The findings concerning the evolving nature of hotel resilience spillover contribute to the hospitality and resilience literature.
