A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from hotel customers in Spain. The results of the structural equation modeling indicate that a certified hotel's image will positively influence stay intention and willingness to pay a premium. At the same time, awareness of, and trust in, certification bodies both have a positive effect on a certified hotel's image. Finally, awareness of certification bodies also exerts a positive effect on trust in certification bodies. The results offer hoteliers potential strategies for customer behavioral intentions enhancement.}, publisher = {MDPI}, publisher = {Sustainability 2021, 13(22), 12733}, title = {Quality-Certified Hotels: The Role of Certification Bodies on the Formation of Customer Behavioral Intentions}, author = {Collado Agudo, Jesús and Martínez García de Leaniz, Rosa Patricia and Herrero Crespo, Angel and Gómez López, Raquel}, }
