This paper introduces the metafrontier concept to account lot the environmental and technological differences between various hotels groups The interesting feature of the model is that it ensures that heterogeneous hotels are compared based on one homogenous technology We test the model using a panel data sample of 78 Taiwanese hotels The results clearly indicate that the size, ownership, and classification of a particular hotel have a significant impact on its efficiency More implications of the results are provided (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
