gereksinimlerine sahip kişilerin, evrensel olarak tasarlanmış turizm ürünlerinin,
hizmetlerinin ve ortamlarının teslimi yoluyla bağımsız, eşit ve saygın bir
şekilde işlemesini sağlamaktadır. Uluslararası erişilebilirlik standartlarına
uygun olarak bu çalışmanın amacı; Konya ilindeki 30 otelin otopark alanları,
yaya yolları ve kaldırımları, basamakları ve merdivenleri, otellerdeki toplam
oda sayıları, otellerin sınıflandırılması ve engelli asansörlerin durum
analizleri yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, çoğu otelin Erişilebilirlik

kişilerin bu konuya daha çok önem vermeleri gerektiği ortaya çıkmıştır.
