    El objetivo de este trabajo es realizar una revisión de la literatura de estudios empíricos cuanti- tativos que han analizado la relación entre la gestión medioambiental y la rentabilidad en el sector hotelero. Se han identificado varios trabajos, de los que se examinan las variables medioambientales, competitivas y de rentabilidad utilizadas, los análisis estadísticos empleados y los principales resulta- dos obtenidos. Los resultados indican que el vínculo entre la gestión medioambiental y la rentabilidad puede depender de variables mediadoras, moderadoras y de control. Además, la gestión medioambien- tal puede ser influida por características específicas del hotel y las actitudes de los directivos hacia factores externos e internos. El trabajo ofrece implicaciones para los directivos y futuras líneas de investigación.

    The aim of this paper is to carry out a literature review of the quantitative empirical studies that have analyzed the relationship between environmental management and performance in the hotel industry. Several studies were identified, in which are examined environmental, competitive and performance variables, statistical analyses, and the main findings. The results show that the link between environmental management and hotel performance may depend on some mediating, moderating and control variables. Moreover, environmental management may be influenced by specific hotel characteristics and managerial attitudes towards some internal and external factors.

    The paper offers implications for managers, and future research lines.
