Top 10 Reasons to Advertise in the Hotel Dining Guide

1. Largest Circulation. Each edition of the Hotel Dining Guide has a circulation of over 250,000 hotel guests per year for each. No other publication comes close to giving you the same level of exposure.

2. Longest Shelf Life. Unlike newspaper ads that burn through your marketing budget in a day or week, the Hotel Dining Guide promotes your restaurant to new customers every single day for 12 months.

3. Perfect Timing. This is the only publication that customers read at the exact moment when they are looking for a place to eat. You don’t need to fight for their attention; they are already looking for a restaurant!

4. Lowest Cost. Simply put, this is the most affordable advertising vehicle you will find. The cost to advertise in the Hotel Dining Guide is a fraction of what it would cost to deliver a comparable ad in any other publication.

5. Highest Visibility. To make sure every advertiser gets enough exposure, the Hotel Dining Guide limits the number of participating restaurants. Also, restaurants are intentionally selected to provide customers with a wide variety of dining choices.

6. No Discount Coupons. Most hotel guests are on expense accounts. You don’t need to buy their business; these customers are looking for the most appealing restaurant, not the one that gives away the most free food.

7. Weeknight Business. The majority of hotel guests are business travelers who are staying on a Sunday through Thursday. Even if your restaurant is crowded on the weekends, the Hotel Dining Guide can significantly boost your sales!

8. Free Photo Shoot and Ad Design. Participating restaurants receive a free photo shoot and graphical ad design. The cost of a photo shoot alone would typically be several hundred dollars. (Of course, you can provide your own photos and ad design if you prefer).

9. Attractive Full-Color Ads. The Hotel Dining Guide is a full-color glossy magazine that presents a first-class image. Unlike black-and-white newsprint-based ads, your full-color ad will make an attractive impression that motivates customers to come to your restaurant.

10. Extra Promotional Benefits. Restaurants that advertise in the Hotel Dining Guide receive free inclusion in two additional promotional programs. Your full menu will be included in a booklet that is kept at the front desk of every participating hotel. In addition, you will be listed as one of “Area’s Best Restaurants” in a popular web directory.
