The book highlights the importance of the lodging sector in tourism as a major income generator and essential part of the travel experience.

- the place of accommodations in tourism and vice versa
- the social ecological and economic implications of lodging development
- management and restructuring issues in a globalizing industry
- sustainable tourism and the accommodation sector
- cross-sectoral linkages between lodging, food services, gaming, conferences, and other intermediaries
- the interaction between supply and demand

Tourism and the Lodging Sector critically examines a wide range of lodging establishments from an industry and social science perspective, drawing parallels and distinctions between the various types of accommodation, from campgrounds for the cost-conscious or adventurous outdoor traveler, to luxury, five-star resorts, and more innovative accommodation such as tree-house hotels and ecolodges.
