Hospitality Management is broader and covers areas such as hotels, restaurants, travel, events, guest services and overall customer experience. Hotel Administration is more focused on the day-to-day working of a hotel, including front office, housekeeping, food and beverage and staff coordination. In LPU, the curriculum also gives importance to practical learning and industry exposure, which can help students understand how hospitality operations work in real situations. So, the main difference is the scope: hospitality management is wider, while hotel administration is mainly hotel-focused.
