Content analysis of the scientific literature made it possible to solve the main research problem. Structural-system method - to systematize the obtained results. The interdisciplinary of scientific methodology has prompted the use of methods integrated from a number of disciplines - economics, culturology, art history, and others. The scientific novelty lies in the identification, analysis and systematization of dissertation research of Ukrainian scientists in the field of modern hotel and restaurant complexes with an emphasis on cultural and leisure and recreational and relaxation component of their service. Conclusions. In Ukrainian science, attempts to study the cultural and leisure and recreational and relaxation component of the service of hotel and restaurant complexes are embodied only in some publications. At the same time, science only affirms the complex concept of "hotel and restaurant" complex. The activities of the latter, as centers of culture and leisure, remain on the margins of modern research interest. As an important component of modern service, socio-cultural activities are usually reduced to logistical and sectorial production aspects. However, the cultural and leisure and recreational component of modern complexes affects the transformation of the traditional basis of society, which indicates its focus on meeting the needs and interests of man, which best characterizes its compliance with the requirements of the time, focused on humanizing all realities of life.
