Abstract: The emergence of halal hotel businesses has attracted many scholars’ and practitioners’ attention. However, the halal hotel concept and the required human resources are still not very clear. This study aims to examine the internal and external aspects of halal hotel human resources in Indonesia and propose a proper human resource strategy by using the strategic management standpoint. This study employed a qualitative approach via recorded personal interviews with seven halal hotel managers in Bandung, Indonesia. The data were transcribed and analysed by using content analysis. The finding concludes that the halal hotel business position is in the first quadrant of the internal and external strategy matrix, meaning that the halal hotel is needed to develop a growth or concentration strategy. Consequently, in terms of human resources strategy, the halal hotels need to implement multichannel procurement through regular programs, talent scouting, and campus hiring, conduct staff re-assessment, and increase the brand reputation of the halal hotel. The paper contributes to the emerging research on halal hotel human resources strategy.
