Client Highlight: Atlanta Marriott Marquis

The Atlanta Marriott Marquis located in Peachtree Center in downtown Atlanta has 1663 recently renovated guestrooms and 94 suites. The hotel is located about 15 minutes from the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport. Their lobby and restaurants were a part of their recent massive renovation project. The Atlanta Marriott worked with Rosetta’s Interactive Marketing team to create three distinct module websites for each of the restaurants so that the hotel could market them to an audience larger than simply hotel guests.

Client Highlight: New Orleans Marriott Properties

Three Marriott hotels in the New Orleans area - the New Orleans Marriott, the JW Marriott Hotel New Orleans and the New Orleans Marriott at the Convention Center - were affected by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. In an effort to rebuild the area and attract both the leisure and business traveler, Marriott engaged Rosetta’s search marketing team to help drive visitors to the area using pay-per-click campaigns. Rosetta strongly supported the effort to rebuild New Orleans and performed some of the search marketing work pro bono.

Our Travel & Hospitality Perspective:

Radical cuts in airline commissions, rapid growth in online-based travel websites and well-informed consumers who are adept at exploring travel alternatives are just a few of the powerful drivers of change within the travel & hospitality industry today.

As companies within this unique industry reevaluate their marketing investment, the eventual leaders will be those that are listening to their customers, understanding their overall behaviors and consistently meeting their needs. That’s why many industry leaders are collaborating with Rosetta to provide strategy and solutions that help drive actual bookings, web site traffic and measurable ROI.
