Keywords:
COVID-19, Pandemic, Malaysia, YouthAbstract
From the perspective of Feng Shui culture, this study examines six hotels in Hong
Kong and Bangkok. By observing the design, decoration, and environmental layout of these
hotels, as well as interviewing hotel staff on-site, the study explores the cultural values embodied
in Asian hotel culture. Through a three-tier coding system, the research identifies the cultural
values of Asian hotels as respecting the natural environment, valuing traditional culture,
emphasizing harmony and balance, respecting guest needs, and considering destiny. These
findings provide a basis for a better understanding of customer needs in the hotel industry and for
improving their hospitality culture. They also offer valuable insights for future hotel design and
management practices.
