1 2012 Homewood Suites WorkStyles Study June, 2012 Shawn Yan Market Research Department
2 Executive Summary Overall, many business travelers spent 3 to 10 nights on the road in the past year. The average length of a business trip was typically seven days or less. Internet Service was the top hotel service used by business travelers. Normal Routine (32%) and Kitchen (25%) were the top two most missed items from home. Both figures were lower in the 2010 study: Normal Routine: ; Kitchen: 7%. These increases indicated that more and more business travelers would like to keep a healthy lifestyle while on the road. Many business travelers would like to try to keep their normal routine while traveling. They indicated that In-Room Kitchen and Hotel Fitness Center would help maintaining their routine easier. When booking a hotel, business travelers emphasized Value and Location, which were also frequently mentioned in the 2010 study. The most valuable hotel amenity was Large, Comfortable Rooms by most business travelers. Most business travelers would like to stay at the same brand s hotels or brand s sister hotels. Loyalty Program was the top reason for their hotel selections Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 2
3 Methodology The Homewood Suites brand team requested an update to a survey conducted in 2010, called the Homewood Suites Workstyles Study. This was a study of extended-stay business travelers to find out their hotel booking preferences and travel behaviors. To this end, an online study was conducted from May 16 to 25, 2012 using the erewards Panel. To mirror the 2010 survey, participants were screened to have had three or more trips in the past 12 months for a duration of four or more nights for at least one trip. In total, 553 travelers responded, and the sample was split 50/50 between men and women. Upon analysis, many of the results from the 2010 study cannot be used for the comparisons, as the questionnaire had been changed. We have attempted to draw as many comparisons between 2010 and 2012 as possible Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 3
4 Summary of Findings Background Information More than half of the respondents (55%) traveled for business from 3 to 10 nights in the past 12 months. For the majority of them (94%), the average length of a business trip was typically seven days or less. Hotel Amenities/Services Internet Service (88%) was the most used hotel service among business travelers, followed by Dining Facilities (58%). The top two items missed by business travelers were Normal Routine (32%) and Kitchen (25%). When comparing the top two missed items by gender, while there was no big difference on Normal Routine (Male: 32% vs. Female: 31%), there was an obvious difference on Kitchen (Male: 22% vs. Female: 29%) Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 4
5 Summary of Findings (Continued) Booking Preferences When choosing a hotel, many business travelers thought Value (34%) and Location (34%) were the two most important factors. Almost three quarters of the respondents (73%) were likely to stay at the same hotel for both longer and shorter trips. For those who stayed at a different hotel, many of them were looking for Larger Suites with Separate Living and Sleeping Areas (66%) and Kitchen with Full-Sized Refrigerator (52%). There was no blatant difference in the preferred pricing structure between Bundled (39%) and A La Carte (38%) among all respondents. Large, Comfortable Room (63%) was the most valuable amenity reported by respondents. Almost three quarters of respondents (73%) would NOT be influenced by recommendations/brand communications from social media in their hotel selections Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 5
6 Summary of Findings (Continued) Travel Behaviors Traveling was still deemed as the most effective means to do business by most respondents (73%). Almost one half of the respondents (47%) were looking forward to traveling for business. When it came to maintaining their normal routine during a business trip, respondents were split evenly for maintaining their normal diet (Yes: 51%; No: 49%). However, only more than one-third of respondents would maintain their fitness routine (37%) on the road. Though most respondents indicated that there was nothing to help them make it easier due to lack of time/opportunity, two hotel amenities were mentioned by many respondents, In-Room Kitchen (38%) for maintaining normal diet and Hotel Fitness Center (33%) for maintaining fitness routine. When comparing Healthier Food Options and Enhanced Fitness Facilities, most respondents reported Healthier Food Options (69%) was more important to the hotel selection. Forty percent of the respondents indicated they typically worked 1 to 2 hours per day at the hotel when traveling for business. Most of the respondents (77%) worked at a Desk or Living Area in a hotel Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 6
7 Summary of Findings (Continued) Travel Behaviors (Continued) One third of respondents (33%) reported that they had made an important business connection during social/network activities in a hotel. More than seven in ten respondents (71%) indicated that they would stay at the same brand hotel for their business as well as leisure trips. For those who would stay at the same brand or sister brand hotels, Loyalty Program (Same Brand: 78%; Sister Brands: 77%) was the top reason. For those who would NOT stay at the same brand hotels, Better Location (44%) was the top reason. In addition, all of these groups mentioned Amenities/Services as the second important reason for their hotel selection (Same Brand & Sister Brands: 51%; Another Hotel: 34%). Almost two thirds of respondents (66%) would unpack their suitcases when traveling. Being Away from Home (34%) and Air Travel (31%) were the top two biggest obstacles in business travel Hilton Worldwide Confidential & Proprietary 7
