MarketScale: Customer Reviews Shape Hospitality Brand Success. How Do You Turn Reviews Into Revenue?

Diego Bufquin, professor of practice in management and director of the undergraduate hospitality certificate program, participated in a MarketScale "Experts Talk" roundtable discussion on the impact of customer reviews on the hospitality industry.
With online travel agencies such as TripAdviser and Booking.com, customers can now check a variety of different hotel properties and quickly see all of the customer reviews. Once they're almost set on a hotel, they actually check the ratings on different OTAs to see the consistency of those ratings because sometimes you see a lot of variability. OTAs have made it very easy for customers, so now they're being very careful before booking to make sure they know where they're staying.
