Table # 2 displays the results of stepwise regression analysis in which customers' perceptions on dimensions of service quality such as tangibles, empathy, reliability, assurance and responsiveness were regressed on brand loyalty.
The results indicated that overall about 40 percent variance was explained by the perceptions regarding SERVQUAL dimensions like "reliability", "tangibles" and "empathy".
Brand reliability perceptions alone explained 27 percent variability whereas tangibles and empathy perceptions accounted for only 11 percent and about 3 percent variance in brand loyalty respectively.
However customers' perceptions on "responsiveness" and "empathy" did not influence their loyalty with hotel brand.
