Along with that an interview with the manager of the hotel was made in order to find out more about the motivation strategies that are used, how the business success is followed and all other useful information connected with the motivation of the employees. Considering human resources to be a key part in business success, it is very important for managers to recognize wishes and needs their employees have and according to that, to motivate them for their future work. The more employees are satisfied and motivated, the more productive they are. Through the history different theories were developed connected to the motivation of employees and they are divided into two groups: one that has basis in a process and the one that has basis in a content. Content theories have focus on establishing factors that have influence on person's behavior while process theories try to find the way of motivating certain behavior. The research was made in Park Boutique hotel in Varaždin and 19 employees who work there answered the survey questions and the manager of the hotel gave an interview. According to all information, there is a high level of motivation present among the working people there, but the manager of the hotel thinks that there is room for the improvement too and she is solidly satisfied with the level of motivation.
