“…We can find various applications of the multi-criteria decision-making methods in the tourism sector and related branches (e.g. Chou, Hsu & Chen, 2008;Ip, Law & Lee, 2012;Chien-Chang, 2012;Lin & Lu, 2013;Powers & Kocakülâh, 2015). However, specific applications of the AHP in stakeholder management are quite unusual and innovative.…”

A B S T R A C TRecognizing the role stakeholders have in the tourism development process, this paper focuses on assessing tourism impacts related to the tourism policy priorities from the point of view of destination stakeholders in three well-known tourism destinations in the South Bohemian Region in the Czech Republic. Its aim is to analyze stakeholder perception of tourism impacts and identify such priorities which have the greatest anticipated impacts on developing a given destination. The research is based on a mix of qualitative research approach and innovative application of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The representatives of three stakeholder groups provide the researchers with information about the importance of economic and non-economic tourism impacts and contributions of tourism policy's strategic priorities to four categories of tourism impacts. Based on comprehensive data analysis, the researchers construct a three-level hierarchical structure mapping the importance of various tourism impacts, then sorting the priorities with respect to stakeholder preferences, and finally identifying a gap between the actual and preferred orientations of tourism policy. In such a way, the paper offers a comprehensive recipe for local governments which can be instrumental in realizing tourism policy while being able to promote the most important impacts of tourism on destination's development from the point of view of destination stakeholders.

“…This statistic reflects the importance of the hotel sector in the tourism industry development and shows that the development of international tourist hotels will clearly benefit from this tourism industry. In fact, a forecast from the Pacific Asia Travel Association indicates that the tourism industry will be the fastest growing industry over the next decade [3]. As a result, it is crucial for hotel entrepreneurs to take advantage of this growing demand from tourists by expanding their market share through new hotels development.…”

Abstract-Evaluating and selecting the most suitable hotel location for development is complex and challenging. To effectively deal with this problem, this paper presents an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy multicriteria group decision making approach for evaluating and selecting hotel locations. The subjectiveness and imprecision of the decision making process are adequately modeled by the use of interval-valued based intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. The concept of ideal solutions is adopted for determining the overall performance of each alternative hotel location across all the selection criteria on which the final decision is made. An example is presented for demonstrating the applicability of the proposed approach for solving real world hotel location selection problems.Index Terms-Group decision making, hotel evaluation and selection, interval-valued based intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, subjectiveness and imprecision.

ABSTRACT:In this paper, the centralized return centers location evaluation problem in a reverse logistics network is investigated. This problem is solved via an integrated analytic network process-fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution approach. Analytic network process allows us to evaluate criteria preferences while considering interdependence between them. On the other hand, technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution decreases the number of computational steps compared to simple analytic network process evaluation. An important characteristic of the centralized return centers location evaluation problem, vagueness, is adapted to the methodology via the usage of fuzzy numbers in the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution approach. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the usefulness of the methodology. The results indicate that, this integrated multi-criteria decision making methodology is suitable for the decision making problems that needs considering multiple criteria conflicting each other. Also, by using this methodology, the interdependences between the criteria may be considered for these kinds of problems in a flexible and systematic manner.
