Hotels and Destinations Face the Same Challenge

💭

Guests Always Ask

"Where should we eat?"

Front desk and visitor-facing teams answer this question regularly, often without a consistent way to organize recommendations or see what guests explore.

🤝

Local Connections Are Hard to Package

You may already want to showcase local restaurants, but a static list gives visitors little reason to explore beyond the first recommendation.

Visitors Expect an Easy Experience

A mobile-first guide with clear restaurant choices, check-ins, and optional rewards can make local dining discovery more structured and engaging.

Why the Hotel and Dine Approach Fits

Defined Implementation

The program is scoped around a specific sponsor, restaurant cohort, program window, and reward structure rather than an open-ended software rollout.

Focused Pilot Model

A sponsor can start with a defined market and time period, review how the program operated, and decide whether an extension or new campaign makes sense.

Local Business Connection

The passport creates a structured way to present participating restaurants together while keeping each restaurant's participation distinct.

Expandable Scope

Pilot programs can begin with a focused restaurant cohort and expand through later campaigns when the operating model is proven for that sponsor.

Common Questions

Pricing varies based on program scope, restaurant count, and duration. We offer project-based pricing and ongoing management options. Contact us for a custom quote.

A typical pilot is planned around a defined launch window. For a program requiring restaurant onboarding, branding, rewards, and sponsor materials, allow roughly 6–8 weeks when possible.

No. Hotel and Dine handles the technical implementation and provides sponsor-facing setup guidance for the agreed scope.

Yes. Program branding, destination messaging, restaurant content, dates, and rewards are configured for the sponsored program scope.

Existing restaurant relationships can form the starting cohort. Additional recruitment can be scoped separately if the program needs it.

In a sponsor-funded program, participating restaurants can be included without a participation fee and receive program placement, check-in guidance, and restaurant activity reporting. Exact support depends on the sponsor scope.
