The ignition of a new Hotel transformation
Traditional Customer Service is a dying art that is now being replaced by exciting customer experience reformation initiatives.
New technologies and channels have opened some new unique opportunities for Hotels to surprise and delight Millennials.
Innovative and creative brands like Kimpton Hotels & Restaurant are making moves that appeal to Millennials, interact via apps, double as co-working and Social spaces, and score shareable selfie love along the way.
But what made Kimpton stand out from the crowd is the ignition of Room 301. This is a limited-time guestroom experience designed to be interactive, spark creativity and share what makes you human.
Pay It Forward with your Unique Story
The Kimpton Room 301 Social Experiment is a unique way for Hotel guests to make meaningful connections that add a new exciting element to the customer experience.

Each guest will pay it forward by adding their unique micro-moment to the story.
Kimpton Hotels & Restaurant are bringing in some old-school hospitality elements letting guest utilize a log book to bring their micro-moment to life.

Why your Hotel should model Kimpton’s Social Experiment
Today’s Hotel leadership is pressured to respond to rising customer expectations and adapt to the speed of technology.
Kimpton’s Social Experiment shows that will a little innovation and creativity Hotels are capable of exciting the Millennial market segment.
This is a very effective way to capitalize on the Human-to-human perspective that modern travelers are seeking today.
To me Hospitality is Art. It is like the painter that uses a combination of colors to create a picture. And we all will have a different perspective on how we view the finished product. The key is to bring out the commonalities that tell us that this is an experience we want to share with others.
If Hotels can ignite a community built upon shared micro-moments that create positive and happy connections between humans, we as hoteliers are making an important contribution to the world.
This should be the place where we find inner peace and relax, and find new inspiration to do good.
