Climate change and tourist development are increasing the frequency and severity of water stress situations. This study aims to summarize the research findings in articles exploring water-saving measures applied in hotels. Based on the Cochrane protocol, a systematic review was conducted for the period 2000–2020. Several searches were run to select 39 articles and a coding system was built to classify the findings. Results point out that low cost are the most widely applied measures, probably because have shorter payback periods. However, reclaimed water is one of the most explored measures by academic literature. Different research gaps have been identified. First, no articles have explored the impact of the introduction of water-saving actions on hotels’ competitiveness. Secondly, there is a lack of deeper exploration of stakeholders’ roles and contributions to water-saving management. Finally, it would also be important to analyse to what extent new forms in hotel management influence decision-making.

探索酒店业节水措施研究。严格的系统审查

气候变化和旅游业的发展正在增加缺水情况的频率和严重程度。本研究旨在总结探讨酒店节水措施的文章中的研究结果。根据Cochrane方案，对2000-2020年期间进行了系统评价。我们进行了多次搜索，选出了 39 篇文章，并建立了一个编码系统来对结果进行分类。结果表明，低成本是应用最广泛的措施，可能是因为投资回收期较短。然而，再生水是学术文献探索最多的措施之一。已经确定了不同的研究差距。首先，没有文章探讨节水行动的实施对酒店竞争力的影响。其次，缺乏对利益相关者在节水管理中的作用和贡献进行更深入的探讨。最后，分析酒店管理的新形式在多大程度上影响决策也很重要。
