INTRODUCTION

Hotel is a business or business that experiences intense competition. In other words, a hotel is a form of building, symbol, company or accommodation business entity that provides lodging services, food and beverage providers and other service facilities where all services are intended for the general public, both those who stay overnight in the hotel those who only use certain facilities owned by the hotel (Luthfi & Widyaningrat, 2018).

According to (Kusumaningrum et al., 2023) Hotel is an accommodation that provides lodging facilities and services, food and drink and other public services for the public who stay for a while, and is managed commercially. Thus the hotel not only sells tangible products but also sells intangible products such as in the form of service, entertainment, atmosphere, or a comfortable, clean and beautiful environment.

The tourism industry is one of the businesses that can be profitable in generating state income because tourism is a potential attraction in attracting tourists (Andersson & Getz, 2009). This happened when the emergence of hotel development began in the Siak Sri Indrapura city area which required quality and facilities and met the needs of migrants who wanted to rest.

In addition, the city of Siak is also in great demand by many visitors because it is one of the historical city tourism icons in Riau Province (Damanik & Pratiwi, 2017). The choice of hotels available makes consumers a little confused in choosing the place they will visit. This is an important job for hotel companies to attract consumers to stay at the hotel. The right way to attract consumers by determining the right marketing strategy in order to win the competition.

In the city of Siak itself, the presence of hotels is quite needed by the community or tourists. In addition to staying, hotels can also be used for various kinds of events, such as seminars, workshops, local government activities can also be used for weddings. The choice of hotels is quite diverse and each hotel also displays the best and shows the advantages or advantages possessed so that their parties are able to compete and win the hearts of consumers (Brooke, 2019).

In building� a good brand image, the hotel must of course pay attention to how the quality of service they offer, especially a kind of front office hospitality �at the hotel that will be provided. A good brand image of a company or organization is a very important asset because brand image has an impact on consumer perception and operations in the organization run well so that it can attract potential customers and retain customers (Liat et al., 2017).

Brand image is a public view or a positive perception that can affect the marketing of a company. In a service company, image or image is an important thing that can affect positive and negative marketing activities, where image plays an important role in influencing consumer behavior and decisions. In studying consumer behavior, companies will develop strategies in order to influence consumer interest in buying the products offered.

Service quality is the level of excellence expected and control over that level of excellence to meet customer desires. If the service or service received or perceived (perceived service) is in accordance with what is expected or exceeds customer expectations, then the quality of service or service is perceived as good, ideal and satisfying. Conversely, if the services or services received are lower than expected, then the quality of services or services is perceived as poor (Yusyanah, 2022).

Customer satisfaction occurs after we use a product or service to decide whether we return to use the service product or not. After using it, consumers can rate certain Actions and experiences they have gained to determine the level of satisfaction (Eisenbeiss et al., 2014).

Winaria 1 Hotel is one of the accommodations in the form of a hotel in Siak Regency which was built in 2003 located on Dr. Sutomo street, Kampung Dalam Village, Siak District. Hotel Winaria 1 has close access to destinations and culinary. Right in front of this hotel there is one of the grand mosques in the city of Siak, namely Al-Fattah Mosque and sidewalk seating decorated with lights, people consider the place like Malioboro in the city of Siak, so this is a lot of consideration for consumers to choose because of its advantages.

Winaria 1 Hotel is also a destination that is quite visited by tourists who come to Siak and are interested in staying overnight. Not only tourists, but this hotel also plays an active role for local governments who will carry out activities such as seminars or workshops that require a hall-like room that fits enough to be filled with people. Until now, Winaria 1 hotel has 53 rooms, 1 large hall, 1 medium hall and 2 small halls.

Consumer decisions in choosing a product or service are assessed by quality, usefulness, and reciprocity to consumers. Therefore, the company must be able to improve its strategy on quality and facilities and be able to convince consumers through� a good brand image in the minds of consumers so as to make consumers interested in making return visits.

Knowing the needs and wants of consumers is the goal of a company. So, one of the right ways is to form a brand image that is attractive to consumers. Providing good service to consumers by a company, will create customer satisfaction. If consumers are satisfied, they will make repeat purchases and recommend others to buy in the same place. Therefore, companies must start thinking about the importance of customer service more maturely through service quality, because it is increasingly realized that service is a vital aspect in order to maintain business and win competition.

In Table 1.2 above, it can be concluded that room sales in the 2020-2023 period have fluctuated in the number of realized room sales at Winaria 1 hotels, so this also has an impact on sales targets made by hotels where the target has not been achieved. From data for 4 years, namely from the range of 2020-2023, it can be seen that the number of rooms that sell the most is in 2023, which is 2,402 rooms and the lowest in 2020, which is 94 rooms. The cause of the lack of realization of room sales in 2020 was influenced by� the Covid 19 outbreak which resulted in all community activities being stopped and having to stay at home.

This has quite an impact on businesses in the world including Hotel Winaria 1 itself. Viewed from the other side, there is still a lack of interest in consumers to come to stay at the Winaria 1 hotel in Siak city because consumers also have other hotel choices, therefore the hotel must be able and able to build a better hotel image, as well as improve service or better service quality so that customers are more interested in staying at the Winaria 1 hotel Siak Sri Indrapura City.

According to (Philip, 2012) marketing (marketing) is identifying and meeting human and social needs. One good and concise definition of marketing is "meeting a need in a profitable way".

While according to (Kotler, P. & Armstrong, 2018) states Theprocess where companies create value for customers and build strong customer relationships in order to capture value from customers in return. Definition 9 means that, The process by which a company creates value for customers and builds strong customer relationships to capture value from customers in return (Yoeliastuti et al., 2021).

According to Tjiptono (2015) Brand Image is a description of consumer associations and beliefs towards a particular brand. Brand Image is the observation and trust that consumers hold.

Brand image cannot be engineered, meaning that the image does not come by itself but is formed by the community, from the company's communication and openness efforts in an effort to build the expected positive image. Image building efforts cannot be done haphazardly at any given moment, but is a long process. Because images are all perceptions of objects that are formed by consumers by obtaining information as a source all the time.

 

METODE

In this study, the type of research used is quantitative approach research. According to (Saifuddin, 2013) quantitative research methods are research methods that emphasize the use of numerical data or numbers whose processing uses statistical methods.
