So it ought to serve everyone (Eva Maddox, 2009). An aesthetical design of a hotel can be affected by trend, culture, market segment yet financial resources and the balance between esthetical and practical use (Dobbins, 2009; Rutes, Penner & Adams, 2001). Ransley and Ingram (2001) states that people always have intuitive feelings that a well-designed hotel can attract customers from the desired target market segment and gain greater market awareness resulting in higher profit generated. In fact, tourism consumers are offered various selections while they are gradually having less time to make decisions today (Dobbins, 2009; Kotler, 1974; Rutes et al., 2001; Jani & Han, 2014; Ransley & Ingram, 2001; Turistica, 2015). In order to gain back the investment on a hotel and stand firm in the market, hotels with attractive appearance and well-planned working flow are essential in the high-end tourism market (Dobbins, 2009; Kotler, 1974; Rutes et al., 2001; Jani & Han, 2014; Ransley & Ingram, 2001; Turistica, 2015). The customers requirements on hotels are already beyond service and rooms, a story line that draws the guests into an exclusive world, and that will help make travel specials or businesses (Countryman & Jang, 2006; Turistica, 2015). However, Rutes, Penner & Adams (2001) indicated that good urban design is not necessarily expensive design (p.172). In fact, design that coordinates and incorporates in various aspects may actually be cost-effective (Dobbins, 2009; Rutes et al., 2001; Turistica, 2015). For instance, boutique hotels with linoleum floor and chrome-plated fittings are getting the same average daily rate (ADR) as conventional luxury hotels with marble floor and brass fitting (Rutes, Penner & Adams, 2001, p. 15).Hence, it is more worth for a dissertation to research on how the aesthetical factor that actually affect the customers perception of hotels before process their consumptions and analyse the crucial elements of an effective design in order to maximize the hotels attractiveness and profitability within a limited budget.Start this chapter by discussing the general history of the field of study related to your topic and allow a general reader to better understand the origin of your proposal. Some literature references might be used here cited appropriately.If you propose to study a particular location then this would be a good place to provide a map and some background about the study site, or if you focus on a specific company some useful facts about it could be introduced here.You must here clearly state your main research question or hypothesis(es). If you are using hypothesis(es), they should be first briefly introduced here with the variables they contain being clearly formulated and an explanation on how they were derived should then be included in the conclusion of the literature review (chapter 2).You should indicate here in bullet points the objectives that have been set up in order to answer your research question or test your hypothesis(es). A minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 objectives should be included.Chapter 2 with all its sub-chapters should be 1200-1400 words.Start your literature review by briefly indicating the broad themes of literature that will be examined in the following sub-chapters.Discuss your first theme in details. Critically review, compare and contrast the literature that is related to the theme.Continue with the different sections (2.4, 2.5, etc.) until you have critically reviewed all of appropriate themes and literature.Chapter 3 with all its sub-chapters should be 800-1000 words.Start this chapter by present and justifying with the use of references the type of research philosophy, research approach (inductive or deductive) and research strategy chosen for the study.Discuss in details the data that you will be using. Is it primary or secondary data or a combination of both. If secondary data is used, indicate its source(s), coverage and provider(s). If primary data will be collected, discuss as well the type of data planned to be collected and its coverage. Typically, the structure of the questionnaire or of the interview guide you are considering to use should be briefly presented here.Discuss and justify the data collection technique(s) chosen to collect your primary data. Some literature references should be used here cited appropriately. Be explicit about the limitations related to your choice(s) of methods and justify them. You need to introduce here the characteristics and size of your sample if questionnaires are used or the profile of your eligible respondents and how many of them you plan to talk to in the case of interviews.Chapter 3 with all its sub-chapters should be 200-300 words.Conclude your proposal by first explaining how the study you propose will complement the body of knowledge already available on the subject. Refer back to the literature review in order to justify your study.Summarise here the limitations of your planned study that you have identified.An alphabetical list of the references you have cited and used throughout should be provided here in the format specified by the APA Referencing system. It is recommended to include around 15 relevant academic sources in a BBA dissertation proposal.
