台灣地區孕藏不少有名的溫泉,因此泡溫泉已成爲台灣地區極爲普遍的休閒活動,溫泉經營亦成爲溫泉區的一項產業特色。鑒於人們休閒活動的量與質的逐漸提昇,溫泉的經營型態大體上已由純供泡湯演變爲兼具住宿服務,因此如何提昇遊客住宿需求,亦成爲溫泉遊憩區旅館業者經營之重要課題。研究工具包括「遊客滿意度問卷」、「遊憩利益問卷」,研究樣本爲溫泉遊憩區內419名遊客。本文透過因素分析、Cramer's檢定、二項式logistic分析,探討北投溫泉區遊客之人口統計變項、遊憩利益、遊憩行爲與忠誠度,進而分析這些變項與遊客住宿選擇的關係與影響程度。研究結果顯示:1、住宿需求有無與人口統計變數中之職業、居住地、教育程度、家庭狀況、年齡有顯著相關;與遊憩行爲中之同伴關係、旅遊花費、泡湯與否、交通工具、旅遊資訊來源有顯著相關;與旅遊頻率亦有顯著相關。2、有無住宿需求之遊客其遊憩利益因素有顯著差異。3、顯著影響遊客住宿需求的因素依序爲:「有泡湯者」、「年齡20歲以下」、「電視/廣播」、「居住地以大台北地區」、「個人旅遊花費」、「重視溫泉休閒群」等六項。本研究結果期能提供溫泉旅館經營者擬定具體行銷策略之參考。
