This shift from blissful ignorance to consciousness to making lifestyle changes cannot be missed. This study is undertaken to understand the hotel customer better. With increase in travel, and an increase in health consciousness there is bound to be a conflict. Should one sacrifice personal fitness goals while on a travel or spending a social evening out?
