The holy Karbala Governorate is a corner that possesses diverse resources that enter into the production process as inputs in tourism activities to a large extent, starting with natural, human and material resources, as it is possible to make tourism activity the engine and leader of the economic development process in them, and the possibility of exploiting them correctly, and from here the importance of studying hotel organizations appears by exploiting the available capabilities, but these capabilities were not exploited to promote tourism activity and advance it alongside other activities in driving the tourism development process, which negatively affected all other activities, and this leads to a waste of economic and tourism resources due to the presence of some obstacles and lack of interest in the tourism, agricultural and industrial sectors. These negatives were represented in the lack of commitment to tourism plans for the sector in the entire governorate and the lack of necessary planning in other productive sectors.
