Sažetak
Notwithstanding environmental and operational issues facing Croatia’s hoteliers, very little is known about managers’ awareness about them. To fill this gap, this study examines the awareness of Croatian hoteliers of important environmental issues, e.g. a need to use natural resources efficiently, a need to preserve cultural heritage, etc. Specifically, it reports on the attitudes of Croatian hoteliers towards the environment, and tests wheather various hotel characteristics determine such attitudes. The article concludes that hoteliers tend to favor environmental issues, and that these attitudes are generally independent of hotel characteristics.
