It is important to point out simplified reservation- making. Successful development of E-marketing will result in timely information for the hotel- managers on the latests trends on the world tourist market. It provides the possibility of improvement of the existing offer by introducing innovations, by means of which a more successful tourist product is created, which will be able to satisfy the needs of a modern working person who is searching for rest, recreation, and exploring of new tourist destinations. The development of E-Marketing will have a positive effect on the improvement of business of a hospitality enterprise and on the achievement of competitive advantage on the turbulent tourist market.

In the paper, the authors will point out the significance of E-Marketing and its technologies in the development of tourist offer, successful marketing communication of hospitality enterprise with the tourist market, and achieving business excellence in the modern hospitality industry.will result in timely information for the hotel-managers on the latests trends on the world tourist market.
