Definition of Brand Awareness

Brand awareness is a target group's knowledge and perception of a brand or hotel. High brand awareness means that the brand or hotel is present in the minds of the target group and has a positive reputation. Hotels should strive to achieve high brand awareness.

Why is brand awareness important for hotels?

When a hotel has a high level of brand awareness, it leads to increased demand, increased revenue and increased guest loyalty. If the hotel has a strong and recognized brand, it has a better chance of competing. At the same time, guest loyalty increases, which in turn is a clear advantage for the hotel, as it is less expensive to win back existing customers than to acquire new ones.

Social media is important for increasing brand awareness as it allows hotels to actively promote their brand, interact with their target audience and distribute content.
