Abstract

    

This study investigates the direct impact of hotel guests' perceptions towards using Chatbot on their acceptance and usage intention to visit the hotel, as well as the indirect role of actual use of Chatbot in the correlation between guests’ acceptance and usage of Chatbot and their intention to visit Saudi Arabian hotels. Self-administered surveys were provided to a randomly selected sample of hotel guests as part of the research, which used a quantitative technique. Structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis of 429 valid responses showed substantial positive influence by "PE", "EE", "SI", and "FC" on "UEX" and "IVH". The study also proved that "UEX" mediates the relation between all independent variables and "IVH". These insights These results provide executives and decision-makers in the hotel industry with thorough guidance on utilizing this innovative technology. This will empower them to tackle novel technological obstacles and optimize its utilization to optimize its advantageous impacts on hotel guests.
