In addition, it was also investigated the alignment of this scale with the mission, vision and values statements from each hotel. And finally, suggestions from experts in marketing and branding were collected about ways to develop brands in the hotel industry. The results showed that only four of the BPS five dimensions – sincerity, sophistication, competence and excitement – were considered applicable for all sample participants and in this same sequence of decreasing values of means, as described by the Tukey test that was used as a complement for comparative purpose between hotel means. In the mission, mission and values statements of the samples, it was verified the predominance of characteristics more closely related to the competence and sincerity dimensions.
