The study group of the research consists of meeting groups staying in a five-star hotel operating in Belek/Antalya Tourism Region. In the study, data were collected through face-to-face interviews with 30 volunteer participants from different groups. MAXQDA 2022 qualitative analysis package program was used in the analysis of the collected data. The themes in the research were the tangibles, responsiveness, reliability, assurance, empathy themes, which constitute the dimensions of SERVQUAL service quality, as five variables in the research.
