Summary/Abstract: The Cittaslow movement, which emerged as anti-globalization, has important contributions to cities' environmental policies, the development of sustainable tourism, and ultimately to the sustainable competitiveness of cities. However, the contributions of the city administration may not be sufficient in this subject. At this point, the city residents’ hospitality approaches may have important effects on the domestic tourists’ satisfaction, satisfaction, and revisit intention. When the literature is reviewed, some studies suggest that Cittaslow can be an alternative way to make cities sustainable. However, the city residents’ hospitality approaches were not investigated. Also, the effect of satisfaction on the revisit intention and loyalty was not investigated by incorporation into the model.
