Description:
<jats:p>Customers are becoming more concerned about the use of green practices in the hotel industry. Managers are therefore starting to recognise the significance of green practices for clients’ purchasing decisions and levels of satisfaction. This study aims to investigate how customers’ decisions to book green hotels online and make purchases are impacted by green certificates. Two variables, namely the intentions to return and to pay a premium price, are used to measure customer satisfaction and purchasing behaviour towards green hotels. SmartPLS has been employed to analyse data gathered from 161 individuals from two hotels in Saudi Arabia. The results suggest that green certifications, environmental considerations, and green brand perception have a significant impact on online customers’ satisfaction and purchase choices in the hotel sector. This paper provides a comprehensive framework that illustrates the connection between hotels’ aspirations towards environmental concerns and customers’ willingness to revisit and pay a premium price.</jats:p>
