They were directly engaged in the management and execution of hotel operations, including CRM implementation. Upon being filtered, the data was analyzed by a Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient, regression analysis, and hypothesis testing to measure the impact level of the factors affecting the successful implementation of CRM, and the relationship between the successful implementation of CRM and customer loyalty. The findings obtained indicate that all 6 factors have a positive impact on the successful implementation of CRM, and the successful implementation of CRM has a positive and significant impact on customer loyalty.
