At the HSMAI Marketing Advisory Board, leaders discussed how today's travelers are looking for more than just stays. They crave meaning, self-discovery, and connection with their surroundings. This is no longer the preserve of luxury hotels. Even budget properties are generating value with small actions and community engagement.
As one Advisory Board member noted:
\u201cThe value isn't just about providing great stays\u2026 it's about helping guests see themselves and the world differently.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Partnerships with neighboring businesses transform the stay. Some hotels promote tastings at nearby restaurants or offer exclusive discounts. It's not just an experience for the guest; it's an integration with the local culture. Getting guests out of the hotel is a win-win.
But beware: creative ideas only sustain themselves if there is synergy between marketing and operations from the outset, with organized strategies behind each activation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Visibility is key. To achieve this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An improvised experience may not be sold in advance, but it generates memory and desire:
"Pop-ups work even if the guest hasn't booked it before. Sometimes they see it and look for it on their next visit."<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Measurement must go beyond revenue. Immerse yourself in metrics like total cost, uptime, and qualitative learnings in a single summary. This ensures that every reported contact inspires the next action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not every action needs to generate immediate revenue. What matters is that each project has a well-defined purpose: whether it's loyalty, differentiation, or brand storytelling. As one member emphasized:
\u201cIt seems like this is becoming something more travelers are looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is a growing movement that independent hotels and more agile chains are already implementing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the result is felt: more authentic loyalty, a stronger local reputation, and hotels perceived as an active part of the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
True luxury in the future of hospitality will be the ability to provoke a "rethinking" in the guest, in themselves, and in the world. If you make your operation a stage for this, you not only build loyalty, but you also build lasting relevance.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
