Abstract

The purpose of this research is to provide guidance for future research that may be related to the concept of innovation specifically within the hospitality industry, which is quite imperative when recent researches are being analyzed further and looked on in a deeper scope. Literature reviews examined in this study had a different drive. The main purpose was to analyze factors that influence business models in the hospitality industry, to provide fusion potential on collaborative innovation in tourism and hospitality and to determine dimensions for sustainable oriented hospitality innovation. This literature review seeks to inspect the existing literature published in the period 2012-2022 by using Emerald Insight and ProQuest database with the following keywords: “innovation” and “hospitality” concerning their a) research focus, b) methodology used, c) sample, d) results. All papers that matched the research requirements and time frame are presented. The two databases were carefully examined for the purpose of this study. This systematic and detailed literature review could be a useful base for future researches and service innovation as a key of business success and competitive advantage for the hospitality industry. One of the most significant findings is the relative lack of empirical researches conducted on the sample of restaurants.Svrha ovog istraživanja je pružiti smjernice za buduća istraživanja vezana uz inovacije u ugostiteljstvu, a u tu svrhu važno je analizirati novija istraživanja i sintetizirati glavne pristupe i nalaze. Pregledi literature analizirani u ovoj studiji imali su drugu svrhu. Njihova je svrha bila analizirati čimbenike koji utječu na poslovne modele u ugostiteljstvu, pružiti sintezu o inovacijama svojstvenima turizmu i ugostiteljstvu te odrediti dimenzije za ugostiteljske inovacije koje su orijentirane na održivost. Ovaj pregled literature nastoji analizirati postojeće istraživačke studije objavljene u razdoblju od 2012. do 2022. godine koristeći Emerald Insight i ProQuest bazu podataka sa sljedećim ključnim riječima: “inovacija” i “ugostiteljstvo” u vezi s njihovim a) fokusom istraživanja, b) korištenom metodologijom znanstvenog rada, c) uzorkom, d) rezultatima istraživanja. Prikazani su svi radovi koji su odgovarali zahtjevima istraživanja i vremenskom okviru. Dvije su baze podataka temeljito pregledane za potrebeove studije. Ovaj sustavni i detaljni pregled literature mogao bi biti korisna baza za buduća istraživanja u području inovacija u uslužnom sektoru kao ključ poslovnog uspjeha i konkurentske prednosti ugostiteljske industrije. Jedan od najznačajnijih zaključaka je relativan nedostatak empirijskih istraživanja provedenih na uzorku restorana.
