Paid Advertising To Acquire More Guests, Directly
Most hotel advertising campaigns generate visibility while few consistently increase direct booking share. Thanks to Profitroom's Paid Advertising for Hotels service you will gain more direct reservations while minimising commission costs for OTAs.

Trust the Experts
The Problem: Many hotels approach paid advertising through general digital agencies or fragmented in-house efforts.
Common outcomes include:
-
Budget allocated to broad or poorly qualified audiences
-
Campaigns optimised for clicks instead of confirmed bookings
-
Messaging disconnected from real-time pricing and offers
-
Limited clarity on true revenue contribution
-
Ongoing reliance on OTAs despite continuous ad spend

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Profitroom's paid advertising for hotels include?
It includes fully managed campaigns across Google, Meta, LinkedIn, and TikTok, designed specifically to drive direct bookings.
How is this different from hiring a general digital marketing agency?
Profitroom integrates advertising with your Booking Engine and hospitality ecosystem, allowing optimisation based on booking performance rather than just surface-level engagement metrics.
Do you offer a full-funnel hotel advertising strategy?
Yes! Our full-funnel hotel marketing approach reflects how guests actually book. We run discovery campaigns on Meta and TikTok to build demand, retargeting campaigns to re-engage website visitors, and high-intent Google Ads for hotels to capture travellers actively searching for your property or destination. This structured advertising strategy supports both immediate direct bookings and long-term revenue growth.
Can campaigns promote specific offers or packages?
Yes! Campaigns can be aligned with seasonal promotions, loyalty programmes, and commercial priorities.
How is performance measured?
We track revenue contribution, cost per booking, and impact on direct booking share.
Our Success Marketing a New Eco Resort in a Competitive Destination
Case Study: Vislow Resort
Premium resort property in Wisla, Poland
Challenge
Launching a new resort in a highly competitive neighbourhood under an unknown brand. The objective was to build brand awareness, attract the right audience, and generate direct bookings from day one.
Solution: Full-Funnel Resort Advertising
To successfully launch the property, we implemented a structured hotel marketing strategy across Google and Meta platforms.
1. Defining the Resort’s Unique Value Proposition
We identified the property’s core differentiators (eco-conscious design, slow-life experiences, and sustainable hospitality) to position it clearly in a crowded market.
2. Data-Led Audience Targeting
Using first-party data insights and long-term hospitality experience, we defined the most relevant guest segments.
3. Full-Funnel Google and Meta Advertising
We developed a marketing funnel strategy:
Awareness campaigns on Meta to build brand visibility. Consideration campaigns to engage users interested in sustainable travel. High-intent Google Ads campaigns to capture users actively searching for eco resorts and boutique stays
4. Creative Development for Hospitality Advertising
We produced tailored ad creatives and performance-driven copy aligned with the resort’s sustainable positioning.
5. Campaign Implementation and Account Management
All campaigns were structured and launched directly within the client’s ad accounts to ensure transparency and long-term scalability.
6. Continuous Campaign Optimisation
We monitored audience behaviour, booking trends, and performance metrics to refine targeting, adjust budgets, and maximise cost per booking efficiency.
