Abstract

The article discusses the relationship between qualitative research and the theoretical field of hospitality, aiming to discuss the contribution of studies on hospitality in its various dimensions for social research, in view of the use of qualitative methodologies. Therefore, the bibliography on the subject was used, establishing a cutout in the background and historical development of qualitative research, looking for relationships with the studies in the field of hospitality. The results indicate that research in the field of hospitality, in its dual role as a social phenomenon and as a value, has taken advantage of the evolution and diversification of qualitative methodologies that show the intense relationship between both qualitative research and hospitality.
