The market

More of the world’s hotel staysare booked through a third party.

63.4%

of bookings at independent hotels worldwide came through online travel agencies in 2025.

$8.2 billion

was spent on marketing by Booking in 2025, much of it on search engines and social media, to reach the guests hotels want too.

More than half

of Booking’s room nights in 2025 came from guests who went straight to Booking, not to Google and not to the hotel.

75.7%

of hotel searches on Google in 2025 found the hotel’s own website was not the cheapest offer.

35 → 35%

2022 2025

of travellers now name social media as a source of trip ideas, up from 35% in 2022. It is their first source of inspiration, ahead of friends and family.

Each of our three practices starts from one of these problems, and ends with a hotel that sells on its own terms.

Consulting

How a hotel sells

Most independent hotels have no revenue manager and no dedicated marketer, and the right people are hard to hire. Too much then rests on one channel, one market or one season.

We bring the commercial strategy in-house for as long as it is needed, and leave your team with routines it can run on its own.

  • Sales and marketing audits
  • Distribution and channel mix
  • Pricing and revenue strategy
  • Pre-opening and repositioning plans
  • Representation in new markets
  • Sales training and coaching

Brand concepts

What story it tells

When hotels look alike in their photos and listings, guests compare them on price. Most guests have judged a hotel by its photos and reviews before they ever reach its website.

We curate brand concepts for new hotels and for hotels that are repositioning: the idea behind the hotel, who it is for, its name, its look and the way it speaks to guests.

When the concept is ready, it becomes the hotel’s brand kit and voice in LuxStudio, so every post tells the same story from the first day.

LuxStudio

How it is seen

Social media and ads for your hotel, planned, written, designed, approved and published in one place, in your guests’ languages. Built in-house and made exclusively for hotels.
