Hospitality
Digital marketing for hotels, resorts and heritage properties
Nine Digital helps hotels, resorts and heritage properties in India win more direct bookings and fewer commission-heavy ones, using Google Business Profile, search and Meta ads, SEO and AI-search visibility, and social content. Nine Digital has worked with hospitality brands including Aalia Resort in Haridwar and Laxmi Vilas Palace in Bharatpur, and is led by Mahimvir Singh, a marketer with about 27 years of experience.
What hotel marketing has to fix first
Most independent properties lose bookings at three points: they are hard to find in Maps and AI answers, their own website is slower and less convincing than the online travel agency listing, and their paid campaigns chase clicks rather than booking-engine conversions.
- Google Business Profile: correct categories, photos, room and amenity attributes, and a review-response routine
- Brand-search protection: a small search campaign so guests who type your name land on your site, not an OTA
- Booking-engine tracking: conversions measured in GA4 at the booking step, so budget follows bookings
- Answer-first pages for the questions guests ask AI assistants: weddings, pet policy, distance from the station, best season
How we run a hospitality account
- Week 1 (free trial): Google Business Profile fixes, booking-engine tracking check and one Meta test for a seasonal offer
- Month 1: brand-search campaign, landing pages for weddings, events and packages, and a content calendar around seasons and festivals
- Ongoing: weekly creative tests, monthly AI-search prompt checks (for example "best heritage hotel near …"), and a report on direct-booking revenue
Who this suits
- Independent and boutique hotels and resorts
- Heritage and palace properties with a wedding and events business
- Small hotel groups in India and the UAE that want direct bookings to grow
Questions
Can a marketing agency reduce my OTA commission?
It can shift the mix. Protecting your brand search, improving your own booking page and tracking direct-booking conversions usually moves part of the demand that already exists from OTAs to your website. We don't promise a figure before we have seen your data.
Which hotels has Nine Digital worked with?
Hospitality clients between 2013 and 2023 included Aalia Resort (Haridwar) and Laxmi Vilas Palace, Bharatpur. We do not publish their results because we don't have verified figures we can share.
What does it cost?
A typical hotel plan combines Google ads, Meta ads and social media marketing, from $1,000 per platform a month for ads and $1,500 for social, billed quarterly with bundle discounts. International invoices carry no GST; ad spend is paid by you.
