SUMMARY
This campaign delivered a greater share of bookings direct with Hilton, instead of indirectly via online travel agents (OTAs). We re-established Hilton’s direct relationship with millions of guests, driving significant revenue growth across the portfolio of brands with a simple message, "You should ‘Expect Better’ from hospitality, and with Hilton you can." Across this campaign and beyond, “Expect Better. Expect Hilton.” has become Hilton’s repeated mantra to make booking with Hilton synonymous with raised expectations for a better and more hospitable experience.
