Ao mesmo tempo em que o turismo é reconhecido como atividade causadora de danos ao meio ambiente, a imaterialidade permanece aceita como característica dos serviços em geral, e, portanto, também dos serviços turísticos. O artigo tem como objetivo discutir, à luz de novas abordagens que questionam o entendimento convencional dos serviços, a materialidade dos serviços de hospedagem. Para alcance desse objetivo, é realizada uma pesquisa exploratória. Os dados foram coletados a partir de revisão da literatura sobre desempenho ambiental de meios de hospedagem e sistematizados com base na aplicação do conceito de ciclo de vida (para descrever entradas e saídas associadas aos aspectos ambientais do produto fornecido pelos meios de hospedagem). A estrutura analítica do triângulo dos serviços foi ampliada e utilizada para abordar as fontes de materialidade do serviço. Avançar no entendimento da materialidade dos serviços de hospedagem constitui questão central para o turismo sustentável. Foram identificadas diferentes entradas (energia elétrica, água, alimentos e bebidas, produtos de limpeza, produtos de higiene pessoal, produtos químicos, combustíveis fósseis e outros produtos) e saídas (resíduos orgânicos e inorgânicos, efluentes, emissões atmosféricas, ruídos e odores) associadas às fontes de materialidade dos serviços. Tais entradas e saídas estão fundamentadas no conteúdo material dos serviços de hospedagem, que se manifesta nos sistemas materiais operados (instalações e equipamentos) e nos bens utilizados.

“…One recent study by Qi et al [10] found that there was a close relationship between a high rate of Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) complaints and lower online ratings based on an analysis of more than 160,000 online reviews from 70 five-star hotels in China. They also reported that IEQ performance was significantly compromised in hotels with an annual energy consumption lower than 150 kWh/m 2 .…”

Characterizing Variations in the Indoor Temperature and Humidity of Guest Rooms with an Occupancy-Based Climate Control Technology

This paper characterizes variations in the indoor temperature and humidity profiles of actual guest rooms equipped with Occupancy-Based Climate Control (OBCC) systems that were used to initiate a temperature setback to 15.6 °C in the winter and to 26.7 °C in the summer in the guest rooms. Empirical knowledge of these conditions can provide useful insights for an improved field demonstration and optimization of OBCC, as well as for a more realistic temperature and occupancy input for building simulations for hotel guest rooms. As a result, one year of one minute temperatures and humidity data was characterized against outdoor climate for three different occupancy modes, which was useful to identify the observed room-to-room variations in heat losses and resultant indoor temperatures during the heating season due to the different dynamic heat balance conditions of the guest rooms. This indicated potential discomfort in the rooms that appeared to have a stronger association between outdoor and indoor temperatures, which was also identified from the thermal comfort survey indicating thermostat-related discomfort sources. Interestingly enough, the guests who stayed in these rooms tended to set their thermostat at higher setpoint temperatures when they occupied the room, which appeared to compensate for the low balance-point temperatures of these rooms.

“…For example, it has been asserted that the assessments of the overall indoor environmental quality of office buildings do not follow any standard protocol [8]. This is also typical of hospital facilities where little has been done in assessing their indoor environmental quality, which has great impact on occupants' health, productivity as well as building energy demand [6,9]. There is a need therefore, to have a standard measure for the overall indoor environmental quality of hospital buildings in order to prevent the negative impact of the environment on building occupants.…”

Indoor Environmental Quality

This study seeks to ascertain the spatial distribution of IEQ in hospital wards based on the physical measurement of the hospital ward units with different architectural features. Field survey was undertaken in the medical and surgical wards units of two case study Hospitals both located in Jos, Nigeria. IEQ parameter variables were monitored and recorded, and compared against recommended international standards for hospital facilities. Results show that the measurements of the IEQ parameters conditions in the selected hospital ward buildings, differ substantially depending on the ward design configuration and orientation, and also the outdoor weather condition. The indoor environment in the hospital wards had different thermal conditions because of variations in orientations, window sizes and air inlet/outlet. Building orientation, also affected the indoor daylight quality in each of the hospital ward buildings within the period of measurements. The Teaching Hospital wards whose orientation (NW-SE) allows the fenestration façade to fall within the sun path, maximised it for daylighting within the wards. It is therefore recommended that, the design of hospital wards for improved IEQ conditions should be such that proper attention is given to the orientation, floor plan configuration and window design for natural ventilation and lighting.
