酒店產品和其他產品一樣？對酒店產品概念的理解
    在不同的立場，對酒店產品的認識是不同的。對客人來說，酒店產品是花費時間、精力、金錢來享受購買的一次經歷。對酒店供應商來說，酒店產品是酒店經營者憑借著物質、非物質的產品向客人提供服務的總和。從整個市場來看，酒店產品是向市場提供能滿足人們某種需要和利益的物質產品和非物質形態的服務。
    從酒店產品的整體概念出發，酒店提供給客人的產品是一次消費經歷，由核心利益、展現利益和附加利益組合。核心利益是顧客所要購買的實質性東西，如酒店提供客房的核心利益是滿足客人休息的需要。展現利益是說明表現核心利益的內容，如酒店的地理位置、內外環境、建筑特色、裝飾風格、品牌設計、logo設計等。附加利益是顧客在購買酒店產品時獲得的額外服務和好處，如免費擦鞋、免費長途電話等。
    酒店經營者要明確所提供產品的核心利益，知道顧客購買酒店產品的最真實最根本的需要是什么，這是顧客決定是否購買產品的先決條件。如要保證客房床及床上用品的舒適和衛生，保證客房的安全、安靜，這才能滿足客人休息的根本需要，沒有這個基礎，展現利益和附加利益是在同樣核心利益前提下，體現出酒店獨特的風格和個性服務，是在同類別酒店中競爭的有效手段，應充分發揮展現利益和附加利益的功能和效用。
酒店產品生命周期走勢
    酒店產品和其他產品一樣，在市場上都有一個出現、發展和消亡的過程。在一般情況下，根據產品的銷售量變化，將酒店產品生命周期劃分為四個周期：
    導入期：導入期的銷量從零開始，產品進入市場。產品銷量雖然呈上升趨勢，但上升速度比較緩慢。
    增長期：產品的銷量就進入了一個快速增長的階段。
    成熟期：市場對產品的接受程度趨于飽和，增長速度再次放緩，慢慢接近銷售頂峰，并逐漸開始由頂峰下滑。
    衰退期：銷量迅速下降，如下采取任何措施，將退出歷史舞臺。
