The hotel has been the dominant paradigm that has long determined, and served as, a commercial accommodation role model. Its counterpoint, the private home, is frequently represented as the antithesis to the hotel. Recently however, the commercial home has been proposed as a distinctive alternative to both the hotel and the private home whilst simultaneously recognising hotel and private home influences. The concept of commercial homes brings together the most common form of commercial tourism accommodation worldwide, and yet, there is a current gap for a research-based book giving recognition to this distinctive and economically important form of accommodation. Commercial Homes in Tourism is the first book to give recognition to this distinct, economically important and expanding form of tourism business by bringing together recent, international research on this common form of commercial tourism accommodation. Given the global nature of the commercial home phenomenon, and owing to the originality of its theoretical contributions and practical insights, this book will be of interest across a broad range of subjects and disciplines interested in the examination of the home phenomenon, including students, academics and business practitioners.
