We conducted this study to identify the composition factors for consumers' selection attributes of accommodation applications and to identify the differences in the selection attributes perception of accommodation applications based on demographic characteristics and use status. According to the study, 6 factors were derived as the components of the selectivity of accommodation application and were named convenience, interactivity, economic efficiency, transaction reliability, product reliability and informativeness. And the respondents differed in their selection attributes perception of the accommodation application they used. In particular, it was found that the highest perception of informativeness and interactivity, and the lowest perception of product reliability. Finally, there were differences in the selection attributes perception of the accommodation application they used by demographic characteristics and use status. Based on the results of this study, we should strive to derive the effective marketing strategy needed for travel industry-related companies.
