Abstract:
The present paper attempts to encompass the existing literature review on Neuromarketing in the Hospitality industry. The subject chosen for the review collection is pervasive in the modern era. The relevance of neuromarketing in the Hospitality industry cannot be denied on all fronts. The spectrum of the reviews has been very broad, viz; all 42 reviews were stated from 2015 to 2023, which is nearly eight years. We have tried to do the paper's title justice by ensuring the most updated reviews in maximum numbers. The entire set of reviews has been presented in tabular form to ensure maximum explanation in the best understandable format. All eight columns constitute the table and present every minor detail available for the reader's growth; the paper further follows the research gap with an integral conclusion that winds up the paper with immense dignity for the researchers whose contributions have brought life into the dead experiences and experiments.
Neuromarketing, an emerging field that combines neuroscience and marketing, has captured the attention of businesses and researchers alike, offering a groundbreaking approach to understanding consumer behaviour. Pioneered by Nobel Prize winner Ale Smidts in 2002, neuromarketing utilizes advanced technologies, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electroencephalography, and eye-tracking, to delve into the cerebral mechanisms that drive consumer decision-making (Morin, 2011)[1].
By studying the brain's reactions to various marketing stimuli, neuromarketing provides invaluable insights into the emotional, cognitive, and subconscious processes that influence consumer behaviour (Gill & Singh, 2022)[2]. This knowledge, in turn, enables businesses to optimise their marketing strategies, creating more effective and personalised campaigns that resonate with their target audience (Akbari, 2014).[3]
One of the key advantages of neuromarketing is its ability to uncover the underlying drivers of consumer behaviour, which often operate subconsciously (Mishra & Shukla, 2020)[4]. Traditional marketing methods, such as surveys and focus groups, may fail to capture these nuanced and unconscious responses, leaving marketers with an incomplete understanding of their audience.In contrast, neuromarketing techniques can reveal the subtle emotional and cognitive responses that shape purchasing decisions, allowing businesses to tailor their messaging and branding to better connect with consumers.(Parchure et al., 2020)[5]
Moreover, neuromarketing can potentially revolutionise how businesses approach product development and advertising. By studying the brain's reactions to various marketing stimuli, researchers can identify the most effective ways to capture the attention and interest of consumers, ultimately leading to more successful campaigns and increased customer engagement.(Morin, 2011)1
Despite the perceived advantages of neuromarketing, some marketing scholars remain cautious about the widespread adoption of these techniques, citing concerns about the reliability and ethical implications of such methods. (Akbari, 2014)3 As the field continues to evolve, it will be crucial for researchers and businesses to address these concerns and establish clear ethical guidelines to ensure the responsible and transparent use of neuromarketing.
The tourism industry has faced unprecedented challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with travel restrictions, economic uncertainties, and shifting consumer behaviours profoundly impacting the sector (Sharma et al., 2021)[6]. As Thomas Zoega Ramsey aptly notes, neuromarketing provides a unique lens through which tourism destinations and operators can gain deeper insights into the inner workings of the tourist's mind. The application of neuromarketing techniques, such as the analysis of brain activity and physiological responses, enables tourism marketers to move beyond reliance on self-reported data and gain a more objective understanding of tourist preferences and behaviours (Gaafar & Al‐Romeedy, 2021)[7]. In the post-pandemic context, the value of neuromarketing in tourism is further amplified. As tourists' priorities and decision-making processes have undergone significant shifts, the ability to accurately gauge their emotional and cognitive responses to tourism offerings becomes paramount(Guo et al., 2014)[8]. Neuromarketing can provide valuable insights into which travel products and experiences are most attractive to the current market, enabling tourism enterprises to make informed decisions and adapt their offerings accordingly.

Figure 1.2 Word Frequency Visualization
The reviews stated above give a perfect idea of work done as of now on the related parametric of neuromarketing in the Hospitality industry. Work done to date details the relevance of the former in the hospitality industry.The above is the pictorial representation of the Word frequency visualization, which means the visual representation of the frequency of words within a given body of text. This reveals the frequency of words being repeated in the present context of the given theme.
In conclusion, the integration of neuro-tourism and neuromarketing has opened new avenues for understanding consumer behaviour and enhancing tourism experiences. Despite the promising advancements, significant research gaps remain, particularly in the application of artificial intelligence to these fields. Addressing these gaps could lead to more effective marketing strategies and improved tourist experiences. Future research should focus on incorporating AI-driven techniques in neuro-tourism and neuromarketing, which has the potential to revolutionize these fields by providing deeper insights and more precise methods for capturing unconscious emotional responses. As these areas evolve, the synergy between AI and neuroscience will be crucial in driving innovation and effectiveness in both the tourism and marketing sectors.
