FN ISI Export Format VR 1.0 PT J TI Business travellers’ lodging preferences AF Steiger, Milena AU Steiger, M AB The rise of co-living and co-working spaces around the world expresses our changed lifestyle and way of working. As the younger generations increasingly escape the 9 to 5 routine and work from home, on the road or abroad, a stronger business travel culture has also emerged. While the majority of Generation Y is already active in work life, Generation Z is now entering the world of work. Lodging concepts must meet and encompass the needs of this new target generation. This bachelor thesis provides an overview of the needs and preferences of modern business travellers, Generation Y and Z, in the lodging industry. It analyses the amenities and services they perceive as important and to what extent they prefer services to be customised to their individual needs during a stay. Further, differences between the two generations are being explored and recommendations for the co-living concept Stay KooooK are derived from the findings of both the empirical work and literature review.
