Sheraton vs Best Western on Facebook

Hotels on Facebook

By: Tissha Lela

Sheraton Hotels & Resorts

Sheraton posts once weekly and has content in which speaks about the types of events that they hold within their hotels, their different locations, promotions, and also what they do for those whom are traveling. They do not use the 50/50 rule because they only have content about themselves and not the hotel industry. They often mention to redeem free rewards through social media and their membership benefits if you sign up with their SPG membership card. One of their most successful posts is a video showing how they surprise travellers with random acts of kindness and I think it was successful because it shows how dedicated they are by offering their services outside of their hotels. Another successful post is an announcement for Sheraton Grand where they uploaded pictures of the new properties around the world and I think this was successful because of the attractiveness in the pictures.

Best Western Hotels & Resorts

Best Western posts once or twice a day and has content about winning goods and travel tips. They use the 50/50 rule since they post about themselves and the hotel industry by including vacation and travel ideas. They have weekly contests to win their travel card and motivational advice every Monday. One of their most successful posts is called My Wherever Destination, I think this is successful because they make it about you by asking you to select a location in which you desire to go and share it with your friends for a chance to win one free night at their hotel. Another post in which they are successful with is called Travel Trivia Tuesday, I think this is successful because they post a picture every Tuesday, give a hint then ask everyone to guess where the picture was taken for a chance to win a $100 travel card.
