PR services that tackle the hospitality industry's biggest challenges

This isn’t press for press’s sake.

Our PR campaigns are structured around visibility, bookings, and brand equity. We look at occupancy lifts, traffic from travel features, media relevance, and audience sentiment to gauge success. For a seasonal industry like hospitality, timing and targeting matter. We align each outreach push with your high-demand windows, rate strategies, and market positioning.
  • Pitch calendars built around booking cycles
  • SEO-qualified links in top-tier travel media
  • Media targeting by guest personas and price point

Reporting that maps earned media to your business metrics.

That includes referral traffic to your booking engine, coverage broken down by guest type (luxury, adventure, wellness), and share of voice against your comp set. If a press trip doesn’t drive interest, we adjust the approach. If a feature overperforms, we repurpose it across your sales channels. It’s dynamic, transparent, and tailored to the way hospitality actually works.

How we can help

hospitality pr services

Turn visibility into direct bookings.

PR isn’t just exposure, it’s leverage that fills rooms, tables, and itineraries.

Hospitality is one of the few industries where great press coverage can directly influence buying behavior. A single feature in Condé Nast Traveler or a viral influencer stay can spike search volume, drive instant booking inquiries, and elevate perceived value overnight. But only if it’s done strategically.

Whether you run a boutique hotel, an eco-retreat, a luxury villa portfolio, or a fine dining concept, the right PR makes you the go-to option in your guests’ minds. We target media that matches your ideal guest, package your story in a way that editors want to publish, and time campaigns to sync with your sales goals so you’re not just seen, you’re chosen.

Build trust and brand recall before a guest ever arrives.

People book feelings, expectations, and perceived experiences, not brands.

Great PR creates a reputation that precedes the stay. It signals credibility, quality, and emotional value in a way ads simply can’t. A glowing review in a respected outlet or a feature in a “best new stays” roundup instantly reassures guests they’re making the right choice for what they’re after.

Whether you’re launching a new property or repositioning an existing one, earned media helps shape the story for you. It builds social proof at scale and reduces booking hesitation. For restaurateurs, it fills tables. For resort owners, it sets the tone. For destination marketers, it puts you on the map (literally). That’s the power of trusted third-party validation.

Strengthen your presence (and pricing power).

When it comes to branding and pricing, perception is reality.

Strategic PR helps you position your experience as worth the price, whether you’re a luxury lodge, design-led boutique hotel, or locally beloved food concept. When media tells your story the right way, guests understand the why behind your rates and value it. You’re not just a place to stay or eat. You’re the experience they’re coming for.

We also balance local and traveler demand. We secure national and international coverage to attract tourists, but we’ll also place stories in local and regional media to get locals interested. The result: a brand that commands attention, fills its capacity, and schedules year-round.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is hospitality public relations?

Hospitality PR is the strategic approach to getting a hospitality brand featured in trusted media so they become the place people want to visit. It’s about getting earned attention through press, influencers, and public storytelling and managing the brand’s relationship with the media and the public.

How can PR attract more guests to our hotel or resort?

When your property is featured in a respected travel magazine, covered by a trusted influencer, or mentioned in a “best stays” roundup, it gives you instant cred.

Since hospitality PR is visual and experience-first, features like these can generate demand on the spot. And as you repeatedly invest in PR campaigns, brand recall will make you the one they remember when they’re planning their trip.

For our clients, we make that happen through targeted press outreach, curated influencer stays, user-generated content, and strategic media placements timed around your launch dates and booking windows. We match your brand to the right audience, pitch stories with press-worthy angles, and amplify coverage to keep your brand top-of-mind.

Do you work with boutique hotels, restaurants, and travel brands?

We specialize in working with experience-driven hospitality brands. That includes boutique hotels, Airbnbs, luxury villas, design-forward restaurants, tour operators, eco-lodges, and more. If you're offering something unique, we help the right audience discover it, then choose you over the competition.

Can you promote grand openings, rebrands, or renovations?

Yes, and that’s one of the best times to invest in PR. Openings and rebrands give you a natural news hook that media and influencers love. We craft the story around what’s new, why it matters, and why guests should care—and then we get it in front of the right people.

We also coordinate the timing, messaging, and media cadence. By the time the launch day comes around, your campaign will already have been running. Keep in mind, though, that this means you’ll need to plan for these things well in advance (at least a couple of months).

Do you secure features in travel, food, and lifestyle media?

Travel, food, and lifestyle are our core media verticals. We maintain active relationships with hundreds of editors, writers, and content teams at top travel, dining, design, and lifestyle outlets. Whether you’re a hotel, restaurant, or tour operator, we tailor pitches that make your story stand out and drive real interest.

We’ve also segmented our database. That way, when you start working with us, we’re able to get rolling on media pitches and placements ASAP. There are no “guarantees” in hospitality public relations, but this is why we’ve been able to achieve a hit rate far higher than most agencies.

Can you help with influencer stays and hosted press visits?

Absolutely.

We manage influencer and journalist stays from start to finish. That includes outreach, vetting, coordination, and follow-up. We only work with creators and writers who align with your brand, audience, and goals, so you're not giving away comp nights for vague exposure or attracting the wrong crowd.

We also set expectations, track deliverables, and help you repurpose the content across ads, socials, and other channels to maximize the ROI from it.

Do you assist with crisis PR for guest incidents or reviews?

Yes, proactively and reactively.

We offer reactive crisis PR for situations like negative reviews, safety concerns, guest complaints, and incidents involving staff or property that gain traction online. In these moments, timing and tone are everything. When you’re already working with us, we’re prepared act fast, help you respond appropriately, and protect your brand in the public eye.

We also help with proactive crisis PR by building a strong foundation before anything goes wrong. A brand with consistent media presence, positive sentiment, and a clear voice is far more likely to weather a crisis. When people already know who you are and what you stand for, they’re more forgiving (and more willing to give you the benefit of the doubt).

What are the benefits of hospitality public relations?

PR increases brand visibility, makes you more trustworthy, and shapes the story that guests, media, and partners associate with your brand. It brings in bookings, boosts word-of-mouth, and helps you justify premium pricing. Over time, it also builds a defensible reputation that’s nearly impossible for competitors to replicate.

How can hospitality companies leverage PR to their advantage?

Our most successful clients treat PR as a core aspect of their marketing strategy instead of as a one-off push. They stay engaged, communicate their booking patterns and business goals, and give us access to what’s going on behind the scenes. That makes it easier for us to tell compelling stories that resonate with their guests.

They also go beyond press by amplifying wins through their site, socials, newsletters, and sales channels. This is how they turn every feature, placement, or influencer post into long-term brand equity and direct ROI.

What are the key components of a successful hospitality PR strategy?

It starts with a clear story: what makes your brand unique, desirable, and worth experiencing. From there, it’s about targeting the right media, syncing outreach with booking cycles, and combining long-lead and short-lead coverage.

A strong strategy also includes influencer collabs, SEO-focused PR, crisis readiness, and post-coverage amplification. That’s when you start turning that attention you’ve earned into action that builds upon itself.

What are the biggest challenges in hospitality public relations?

Timing and differentiation. The market is saturated and media get hundreds of pitches a week. If your story isn’t newsworthy and well-timed, it gets ignored.

Also, hospitality PR has to constantly balance seasonal relevance, shifting traveler behavior, and local vs. global audiences, all while protecting brand reputation in an era of real-time reviews and social sharing.
It’s worth mentioning that the same goes for social media. Reels, TikTok, and

YouTube are flooded with all kinds of experiential content. In a way, a lot of people are desensitized to it. This is why, regardless of the channel, our #1 priority is to avoid platitudes and lean into what makes you the unique option.

How does hospitality PR differ from general public relations?

Hospitality PR is emotional and experience-driven. You’re not promoting a physical product. Instead, you’re selling a feeling, a place, and a moment. That requires strong visuals, sensory storytelling, and alignment with lifestyle trends.

It also demands an understanding of seasonality, guest types, and how media decisions influence real-world travel behavior. Generic PR agencies tend to miss these nuances and it shows in the results.

How long does it take to see results from hospitality PR?

It depends on your goals and media targets. Long-lead publications take 2 to 6 months to publish, while digital outlets and influencer campaigns can generate buzz within weeks. Most of our clients start seeing meaningful traction (placements, brand mentions, demand gen) within the first 90 days of a campaign.

Can hospitality public relations help with reputation management?

This is one of PR's biggest strengths. Through consistent positive coverage, strong storytelling, and timely communication, we get the public to see your brand positively. If issues arise (like a negative review or incident), your existing press footprint and brand goodwill work in your favor.

When negative PR happens, though, we’ll also guide you and your team on how to respond, rebuild trust, and reinforce your positioning during those sensitive situations.

What types of PR campaigns work best in hospitality?

What goes into a campaign really depends on what you’re after and where in the hospitality niche you operate. Are you a hotel with accommodations, spas, dining, events, and experiences? A big new event venue? A trendy local restaurant?

The most effective campaigns match your story to your ideal guest’s mindset. That might mean launching a press push before peak season, securing a feature around a unique guest experience, or hosting an influencer who aligns with your ideal guest’s interests.

Seasonal campaigns, soft rebrands, and list-style features (e.g., “Best New Hotels”) all tend to perform well, especially when they’re supported with follow-up amplification.

How much should a hospitality company invest in public relations services?

It depends on your company size, goals, and target markets. But most hospitality brands invest between $3,000 and $10,000 per month in professional PR. Smaller properties or restaurants may start lower, while luxury resorts, multi-location brands, or destinations typically invest a lot more.

Think of PR as a revenue channel instead of an expense: it drives bookings, boosts brand value, and pays off over time.

Should hospitality businesses prioritize local or national PR?

Since your ideal customer is almost definitely not location-specific (but you certainly want to attract  the answer to this question is “both.” Whether to go the local or national route, though, depends on what you’re after.

National and international PR builds brand credibility and drives travel demand.Local PR is great for event promotion, weekday traffic, and building community loyalty. If you’re launching, expanding, or targeting tourists and out-of-town visitors, national PR is the priority. If you want locals at your restaurant or venue, local PR brings them in the door.

What mistakes should hospitality brands avoid when doing PR?

Don’t treat PR like a one-time announcement—it works best with consistent storytelling over time. Also avoid vague messaging, poor visuals, and last-minute outreach that misses key editorial calendars.

Another important tip: don’t try to be everything to everyone. The strongest campaigns focus on what truly sets you apart and deliver that message to a specific audience through the channels they use.
