The authors use the content analysis method to identify and describe the sustainabilityreporting of hotel chains and independently managed hotels in Spain. The findings show that the sustaina-bility information reported by hospitality companies currently meets the basic principles of a SD-SRMapproach. Nonetheless, the authors also identify areas for improvement, such as the orientation of thereporting to suppliers or the more equilibrated distribution of information among all corporate stake-holders.
