The study was conducted at 3-star and 4-star hotels in Kupang City and the key informants were selected, namely hotel representatives who directly took care of the health protocol and 50 guests who stayed at both hotels. Based on thematic analysis of interviews with hotel representatives and questioner for 50 guests, this study identifies four health protocols: cleanliness, health, safety, and environmental sustainability The results of the study show that 1) the effectiveness of the implementation of the health protocol has been well implemented by the two hotels but there is still a need for improvement in the Environmental Sustainability indicators. 2) The impact of the implementation of a CHSE-based health protocol on the hotel industry in Kupang City is a positive impact for hotels including increasing the confidence of these hotels, increasing brand image for guests who will choose a hotel to stay, and increase hotel occupancy where the average increase is 50% after being certified by the CHSE health protocol.
