HÔTEL DON CÉSAR
Back to portfolio CONTEXT AND BRIEF
A 5-star establishment with 39 rooms and suites, 7 villas and a private pontoon that juts out into the bay of Porto Vecchio, the Don César has been shining on southern Corsica for over 10 years.
Since 2015, the hotel's teams have been working hand in hand with Eliophot to develop its marketing strategy and define the tools for omnichannel campaigns. The aim: to highlight a high-end website and high-end services to maximise direct bookings and increase the hotel's margin.
SOLUTIONS
Four areas of work to improve the hotel's margins:
SEO: A fully mobile responsive and custom designed site, with a first version in 2016, then a complete makeover in 2022. Targeted work on the most relevant searches for the establishment, after thinking through the keyword strategy with management.
SEA: A campaign to protect the hotel's brand, to bring visitors back to an elegant site rather than a platform like Booking.com.
META SEARCH: Comparative advertising to highlight the hotel's competitive rates. This gives the hotel a visibility boost on its prices, which are more aggressive than those of resellers.
EMAILING: Take advantage of the hotel's seasonal nature to maximise occupancy in the high season and build customer loyalty.
OUTCOMES
The months and years of work have generated a very satisfactory ROI for Don Cesar:
