Manage episode 427064224 series 3560444
Today, we're diving into the dynamic world of hotel branding with Dean Winter from Swire Hotels. They're reimagining luxury with their East Hotel Miami, embracing a fresh "alt luxury" approach. Here's what's changing and why it matters:
Evolution of East Hotels: Originally targeting corporate travelers, Swire Hotels recognized a shift in customer demographics and needs over their 14-year journey.
Introducing Alt Luxury: Catering to a younger, well-traveled audience (25-40-year-olds), they're blending luxury with informality. Think high-quality service minus the fussiness.
Connecting with Community: Emphasizing engagement and spontaneity, their hotels are becoming hubs for local activities like runs and cultural events.
Environmental Responsibility: No plastic, water filtration systems, and waste reduction are central to their sustainability efforts.
Future Expansion: Swire Hotels plans to expand across Asia-Pacific, aiming for 30+ properties under the East brand.
This shift isn't just about luxury; it's about creating meaningful connections and experiences. Stay tuned for more updates as Swire Hotels continues to redefine hospitality!
