First, a DEA based Meta-frontier is utilized to estimates the cost efficiencies of sample hotels. Then, we regress the cost efficiencies on the business model as well as several control variables using TOBIT regression to investigate the relationship between the business model and cost efficiency of . In support of the management theory, the empirical finding indicates a significant positive relationship between business model, number of rooms and interaction effect of business model and size.
