Lodging industry

The lodging industry encompasses businesses that provide short-term accommodations for travelers, such as hotels, motels, resorts, and bed-and-breakfasts. It involves offering a space to sleep, along with various amenities like cleanliness, security, and sometimes food or leisure services. The industry caters to tourists, business travelers, or anyone needing temporary shelter, and its success depends on factors like location, service quality, and economic conditions. Lodging establishments generate revenue by charging guests for their stay, often with additional income from services like dining, events, or recreation.
