Synopsis
1. Introduction
Hospitality is the relationship between the guest and the host in simple words the
act or practice of being hospitable. This includes the reception as well as
entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers. The hospitality industry is much
broader than most other industries because the majority of business niches are
composed of only a handful of different businesses, but this industry applies to nearly
any company that is focused on customer satisfaction and meeting leisurely needs
rather than basic ones. As the hospitality industry is a broad category of fields within
the service industry which includes lodging, event planning, theme parks,
transportation, cruise line, and additional fields within the tourism industry. Many
forms of transportation which cater to travelers are also part of hospitality industry.
For example, hospitality industry includes airlines, cruise ships, fancier trains,
restaurants, and event planning.
The Indian tourism and hospitality industry has emerged as one of the key drivers of
growth among the services sector in India. It provides several socio economic benefits
and thus holds a strategic importance in the Indian economy. Considering the rich
cultural and historical heritage, variety in ecology, terrains and places of natural
beauty spread across the country, this sector is a huge crowd puller and has witnessed
a steady growth in the past decade. A large employment generator, the travel and
tourism industry is a big source of foreign exchange generation for the country.
According to (INDIA, 2016) , Uttar Pradesh, the heartland of India, dominates the
nation in culture, religion, language and politics. Situated in the vast steamy plain of
the Ganges, it boasts of a history that’s very much the history of India, and its temples
and monuments – Buddhist, Hindu and Muslim – are among the most impressive in
The country. The state, adjoining Delhi has always been close to India’s power center.
Agra, once the Mughal capital is still the biggest draw among the visitors, both foreign
and domestic. Lucknow once a part of the Kingdom of Awadh, is the capital city of
Uttar Pradesh.
‘The Religious Capital of India’, Varanasi in eastern UP is frequented by pilgrims from
various parts of the world. It lies on the banks of the river Ganges, which adds magic
to the atmosphere. It is believed death transports the soul to final liberation here.
Agra and Varanasi are on the top in the travel itinerary for most tourists and they are
mostly impressed with the cultural diversity, past heritage and architectural splendor
of the age old monuments. For Agra, The Taj Mahal is the point of attraction where
few of them visited twice or more during the stay and would love to revisit to witness
this unique piece o of structure. Some tourists take interest in the historical
monuments and structure too.

STUDY SETTINGS A mention about the research setting should be made. This
includes information about the place, facilities available, time of study, and
population of study.
SAMPLING Sampling is selecting a sample of appropriate size for the study. The
sample size depends on the study design. There are many methods for sampling
like simple random, systemic and stratified sampling, cluster sampling, etc. Care
should be taken to ensure that the sample size is adequate to produce meaningful
results. The sample size should be adequate to apply all relevant tests of
statistical significance. The samples should be representative of the population
and should be reliable. This minimizes sampling errors.
