Digital Pathways Review
Where guests hesitate, how bookings are lost, and what to do about it
Most hotels don't have a revenue problem. They have a clarity problem.
Guests find you, like what they see, then book somewhere else. Not because your property isn't exceptional, but because the digital pathway to booking is longer, less clear, or less reassuring than it should be.
The Digital Pathways Review identifies exactly where friction exists, where trust erodes, and where you're quietly losing bookings to competitors or OTA platforms. Then it provides realistic, prioritized recommendations that strengthen your digital presence without overwhelming your team.
This is not a generic website audit. It's a measured commercial assessment of how your digital presence supports (or undermines) booking performance.
This review is for independent hotels that suspect there's untapped potential
Independent properties (10-100 rooms)
You're not a chain. Your digital presence should reflect that distinctiveness, not undermine it with inconsistencies or friction.
