    市場定位是指酒店在市場營銷中，根據消費者的需求和心理特征，確定自己的特點和地位，以征服和吸引消費者。在市場營銷戰略中這種定位主要包括以下內容和步驟：
    ①市場營銷目標定位，即在營銷過程中，應達到哪些目標，諸如銷售量、銷售額、市場占有率、產品特色、產品價格、質量標準、促銷方法、目標利潤等。
    ②目標市場與營銷組合定位，即酒店必須從掌握環境條件入手，正確地分析劃分市場，在充分了解部分對手狀況和消費者特點的前提下，設定本酒店銷售和服務的對象。同時，酒店應該將既定的市場營銷戰略加以展開，確定市場營銷組合，把產品、價格、銷售渠道和促銷方法等納入統一的規定實施，以最大限度地有效利用人員、時間和資金，使市場營銷活動達到最佳效果。

    酒店市場定位必須從以下幾個方面著手：
    ①要做好酒店形象的調查，了解社會公眾對本酒店的認識、依賴和好感程度，了解人們對酒店總體形象的評價。其具體方法是通過社會公眾對產品質量的滿意，對服務質量的認可，對酒店實力的依賴，對酒店信譽的肯定等方面的因素來評價。
    ②酒店形象定位要切合實際，要能吸引社會公眾，符合社會發展變化的趨勢，符合公眾的心理需求，符合酒店自身發展的需要，要求不要過高，但要有創新，便于操作。
    ③酒店形象定位策略運用要正確，必須以酒店在市場上所處的地位來制定相應的策略。一般來說，如果酒店在市場上已處于領先地位，酒店形象已植根于消費者心中，酒店就不應輕易改變自己在消費者心中已確定的地位，而應進一步增進社會公眾對酒店的了解和好感，擴大自己的影響；如果酒店是挑戰者，則應該弄清楚自己的策略目標和策略方法，找到差異，獨樹一幟，提升酒店在社會公眾心目中的形象。
