Service quality, customer satisfaction, and customer value: A holistic perspective

Abstract

The author proposes and tests an integrative model of service quality, customer value, and customer satisfaction. Using a sample from the luxury segment of the hotel industry, this study provides preliminary results supporting a holistic approach to hospitality customers' postpurchase decision-making process. The model appears to possess practical validity as well as explanatory ability. Implications are discussed and suggestions are developed for both marketers and researchers.
