Hotels have to establish a unique offering or service for their guests, to highlight themselves on the market. A way to generate a successful establishment within the hospitality industry is to implement and develop innovations, which can be seen as the creation of an extra value for the guest (Victorino et al., 2005). Findings from various articles and books like Service innovation and customer choices in the hospitality industry from Victorino et al. in 2005 and Open Services and Innovation from Henry Chesbrough in 2011, lining out that Service Innovations have an impact on the choice of customers and are a "clear and sustainable way to grow a business" (Chesbrough, 2011, p.13).
