Resumo: | The purpose of this article is to understand the possibilities and limits for genuine hospitality to materialize in hostels, according to the vision of hosts who work in this type of accommodation in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The proposed theme is still incipient in the Brazilian context from the point of view of academic studies, government initiatives and market investments in this type of accommodation. The methodology used a qualitative approach and involved field research in three hostels selected according to pre-established criteria, in which observations and interviews were carried out with six hosts. The collected information was systematized by content analysis, with the support of the NVivo software. The main results show that the acts of receiving/welcoming and hosting are watered by a human warmth dedicated to the guests by the hosts of the studied hostels. This finding highlights aspects such as self-sacrifice for the well-being of the person being welcomed, revealing the fine line between the act of serving and servility in the hospital context. The posture of the hosts is in line with the so-called greatness behind the act of welcoming a person, a characteristic widely conveyed by studies on the subject, especially with regard to domestic hospitality. Hospitality in hostels is governed by the commercial tone, but the observations and interviews showed that the hosts open possibilities for genuine hospitality to manifest itself in this context, not being limited, therefore, to a mere scenic exercise. The research in question intends, in this way, to contribute to the studies on hospitality, in view of the embryonic debate regarding the manifestation of the gift in commercial contexts, which, for its realization, come into play senses and meanings that are, constantly challenged by limits and possibilities present in the hospitable plot |

El tema propuesto es aún incipiente en el contexto brasileño desde el punto de vista de los estudios académicos, iniciativas gubernamentales e inversiones de mercado en este tipo de alojamiento. La metodología fue de enfoque cualitativo e involucró una investigación de campo en tres hostal seleccionados según criterios preestablecidos, en los cuales se realizaron observaciones y entrevistas a seis anfitriones. La información recolectada fue sistematizada mediante análisis de contenido, con el apoyo del software NVivo. Los principales resultados muestran que los actos de recepción/acogida y hospedaje están regados por una calidez humana dedicada a los huéspedes por parte de los anfitriones de los hostales estudiados. Este hallazgo destaca aspectos como el sacrificio de sí mismo por el bienestar de la persona acogida, revelando la fina línea entre el acto de servir y el servilismo en el tejido hospitalario. La actitud de los anfitriones está en consonancia con la llamada grandeza detrás de la dinámica de la hospitalidad, característica ampliamente transmitida por los estudios sobre el tema, especialmente en lo que se refiere a la hospitalidad doméstica. La hospitalidad en los hostales se rige por el tono comercial, pero las observaciones y entrevistas mostraron que los anfitriones abren posibilidades para que la genuina hospitalidad se manifieste en este contexto, no reduciéndose, por lo tanto, a un mero ejercicio escénico. La investigación pretende, de esta manera, contribuir a los estudios sobre hospitalidad, frente al embrionario debate sobre la manifestación del don en contextos comerciales, que, para su realización entran en juego sentidos y significados que son, constantemente interpelados por los límites y las posibilidades presentes en la trama de la hospitalidad.O objetivo deste artigo é compreender as possibilidades e os limites para que a hospitalidade genuína se concretize em hostels, segundo a visão de anfitriões que trabalham neste meio de hospedagem em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil. O tema proposto é, ainda, incipiente no contexto brasileiro, do ponto de vista dos estudos acadêmicos, das iniciativas governamentais e dos investimentos mercadológicos nesse meio de hospedagem. A metodologia foi de abordagem qualitativa e envolveu pesquisa de campo em três hostels selecionados mediante critérios preestabelecidos, nos quais foram realizadas observações e entrevistas com seis anfitriões que trabalham nesse segmento. As informações recolhidas foram sistematizadas pela análise de conteúdo, contando com o suporte do software NVivo. Os principais resultados evidenciam que os atos de receber/acolher e hospedar são regados por um calor humano dedicado aos hóspedes por parte dos anfitriões dos hostels estudados. Tal constatação coloca em realce aspectos como o sacrifício de si, em prol do bem-estar da pessoa acolhida, revelando a linha tênue existente entre o ato de servir e o servilismo na trama hospitaleira. A hospitalidade em hostels é regida pela tônica comercial, mas as observações e entrevistas evidenciaram que os anfitriões abrem possibilidades para que a hospitalidade genuína se manifeste nesse contexto, não se resumindo, portanto, a um mero exercício cênico. A presente pesquisa pretende, desse modo, contribuir com os estudos sobre a hospitalidade, tendo em vista o embrionário debate, no que se refere à manifestação da dádiva em contextos comerciais, que para a sua concretização, entram em cena sentidos e significados que são, constantemente, desafiados por limites e possibilidades presentes na trama hospitaleira.Universidade do Vale do Itajaí - UNIVALI / SC2023-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.univali.br/index.php/rtva/article/view/1916310.14210/rtva.v25n3.p445-460Turismo: Visão e Ação; Vol. 25 No. 3 (2023): Set.-Dez.; 445-460Turismo: Visão e Ação; Vol. 25 Núm. 3 (2023): Set.-Dez.; 445-460Turismo: Visão e Ação; v. 25 n. 3 (2023): Set-Dez; 445-4601983-71511415-6393reponame:Turismo : Visão e Ação (Online)instname:Universidade do Vale do Itajaí (UNIVALI)instacron:UNIVALIporenghttps://periodicos.univali.br/index.php/rtva/article/view/19163/11427https://periodicos.univali.br/index.php/rtva/article/view/19163/11428Copyright (c) 2023 Turismo: Visão e Açãohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPereira, Joyce Kimarce do CarmoGomes, Christianne Luce2024-03-21T19:29:51Zoai:ojs.periodicos.univali.br:article/19163Revistahttps://periodicos.univali.br/index.php/rtvaPUBhttps://periodicos.univali.br/index.php/rtva/oailuiz.flores@univali.br || revistaturismo@univali.br1983-71511415-6393opendoar:2024-03-21T19:29:51Turismo : Visão e Ação (Online) - Universidade do Vale do Itajaí (UNIVALI)false |
