At LobbyPMS we present the Selfie Spot as one of the strategies to promote guest visits to your business and generate more pleasant experiences.
What to do when customers are increasingly looking for amazing places with unique features that make them feel at home?
It is a matter of balancing these two extremes to achieve attractive spaces that manage to stay in the minds of consumers.
Try to offer your customers experiences that go hand in hand with good service and amenities corresponding to your type of accommodation.
Advantages of offering a selfie area
Your potential customers make a review on networks of the places where they can stay, and beyond the basic features such as the room or the services they have, they look for areas where they can take a portrait and generate a beautiful memory to show off to others. This is how a selfie area will serve as a hook when choosing your hotel as the desired one.
Here are some selfie spot ideas.
How to achieve it?
A small space that has good lighting, either natural or artificial. It should have eye-catching elements such as walls decorated with graffiti, eye-catching artwork, neon signs with inspirational phrases, or eye-catching elements such as furniture with authentic designs like large, decorated mirrors. Or phone booths, tiki poles, a picture frame, a swing, greenery and a colorful background. All of these will help you fulfill your purpose. But as long as it is consistent with the aesthetics of your type of accommodation.
It is about making the accommodation become another place of interest for the visitor, not only the place where he/she stays. This is why owning this area will generate the publication of photographs that will be shared on social networks under the hashtag of your hotel or lodging.
Famous selfie zones
There are several famous selfie areas that have gained relevance in networks through the use of hashtags on Instagram. Such as the graffiti located on Melrose Avenue in Hollywood, “Pink Wings”, by artist Collete Miller.
If you need more inspiration, you can search for the hasthag #selfiespoton networks and even on other hotel rating platforms where you will find different real cases of how it is being used by others, not only in hotels but in restaurants and bars as well as how they are gaining relevance through this implementation.
Organize the spaces to visualize a memorable and unique photograph. Imagination is the limit.
Don’t forget to invite your guests to share their photos by tagging your hotel to promote it.
