The aim of this study was to analyze the determinants of overall satisfaction with a rural tourism holiday and hospitality,
particularly the information sources used, by considering
the moderating effect of the tourist’s previous experience of the chosen tourist destination. The findings clearly show that satisfaction with the information sources used and the perception of the appeal of the different
types of sales promotions offered by hotels have an influence on satisfaction with the holiday and hospitality. This influence is shaped by the type of information source consulted and the type of sales promotion used, as well as by the tourist’s past experience.
