Digital Design & Development
Featured Case Study
Rosedon Hotel | Bermuda
To revitalise the historic Rosedon Hotel into a premier boutique destination, the team implemented a comprehensive rebrand that transitioned the property for a new generation of ownership. The creative strategy centered on "Mid-Century Style," delivering a refreshed visual identity that seamlessly blends 1950s charm with a contemporary, laid-back Bermudian feel. This updated branding was applied across all guest touchpoints, from signage and bespoke printed collateral to a redesigned digital presence ensuring a cohesive experience that honours the hotel’s rich heritage while positioning it as a modern luxury escape.
A critical component of the project was the development of distinct sub-brands for the hotel’s food and beverage outlets, including the poolside area and the new restaurant, Clarabell’s. By creating unique identities for these spaces that sit comfortably under the Rosedon umbrella, the strategy successfully transformed the hotel into a vibrant social hub. This holistic approach, supported by a revamped social media and digital campaign, bridged the gap between nostalgic design and commercial evolution, ultimately redefining the Rosedon as the summer’s most sought-after lifestyle destination in Bermuda.

FAQ’s
-
Successfully marketing a hotel in today’s digital landscape requires a stacked approach, integrating several specialist platforms and disciplines to capture the guest’s journey from discovery to check-in. At its core, a hospitality marketing agency provides a multi-layered strategy that balances technical visibility with emotional desire.
Direct-Booking Strategy
This involves a focus on Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO). Agencies work to ensure the booking funnel, often through engines like Mews or SynXis, is frictionless, encouraging guests to book directly on your site rather than through a third party.Paid Performance & Social Growth
This layer focuses on high-intent targeting. We utilise Meta (Instagram and Facebook) to build brand aspiration through visual storytelling and LinkedIn to capture the high-value corporate and events sectors.
How Guest London Supports Your Property
We believe that while the technical 'stack' is essential, the modern guest is won through visual excellence. We support our clients by blending high-level performance marketing with an editorial sensibility. Our focus is on curated content; we use high-fidelity cinematography and photography to ensure your presence on Meta and LinkedIn feels like a digital gallery rather than a traditional advertisement. By aligning your direct-booking tech with beautiful content, we ensure your hotel doesn't just appear in search results, it defines the standard for luxury in its category.

Identifying the right UK-based partner for luxury hotel marketing requires a comprehensive vetting process focused on three critical dimensions: deep hospitality experience, a 360-degree service offering, and a nuanced understanding of the luxury guest's psychology.
The Value of Wider Hospitality Experience:
A specialist agency must possess extensive experience across the broader hospitality and travel industry. This is vital because luxury hotels do not exist in a vacuum; they operate within a complex ecosystem of global travel trends, seasonal shifts, and evolving guest expectations. An agency with this "wider lens" understands the entire guest journey, from the initial spark of wanderlust on social media to the intricate details of a high-value corporate booking.A 360-Degree Marketing Approach
In 2026, fragmented marketing is no longer effective. A "360 approach" ensures that every digital touchpoint is aligned. This includes Technical SEO for visibility, Performance Marketing (Meta & LinkedIn) for high-intent targeting, and Editorial Content to maintain brand desire. When an agency "gets" both luxury and hotels, they move beyond simple metrics like "clicks" and focus on Return on Experience (ROE) and direct-booking growth.The Luxury Nuance
Luxury marketing is fundamentally different from mass-market advertising. It requires a "white-glove" digital touch, prioritising exclusivity, brand protection, and high-fidelity visual storytelling. The best agencies understand that for a luxury property, the digital presence must feel as curated and intentional as the physical service within the hotel itself.How Guest Supports Your Strategy
At Guest London, we embody a 360-degree philosophy rooted in years of immersion within the UK’s luxury hospitality sector. We understand that a hotel is far more than a building; it is a brand with a soul, and that soul is expressed through the innumerable little touches that define a guest's experience. Our strategy focuses on the granular details that others often overlook, from the precise, welcoming language in a booking confirmation email to the specific texture and weight of the paper stock on your cocktail menu.We pair this obsession with physical detail with a smart, invisible use of data. By understanding your guests' preferences, we craft targeted, editorial-style newsletters that maintain a sophisticated dialogue between stays, ensuring your brand remains a primary thought rather than a fleeting memory.
By positioning your property with surgical precision on Meta and LinkedIn, we reach the modern affluent traveler exactly where they are. Our goal is to provide the expert oversight needed to ensure your hotel isn't just "seen" in a crowded search result, but is actively sought after as a premier destination.
