What is Reputation Management?
In the hotel industry, a positive image is key to attracting new guests. More and more potential guests are using the internet to research their destination, find hotels and book online. Reputation management therefore encompasses all measures that can be taken to control and improve a hotel's image. In concrete terms, this means analyzing and responding to reviews and comments. The goal is to build a positive online reputation.
Why reputation management is important for hotels
Negative reviews can deter potential guests and have a negative impact on a hotel's success. Positive reviews, on the other hand, can help more guests become aware of the hotel and ultimately make a booking. Hotels should therefore actively respond to feedback from their guests. Effective reputation management can ultimately help minimize negative reviews by focusing on customer satisfaction.
