For over 50 years, Select Registry has been setting the gold standard in craft lodging, curating a portfolio of quality-assured bed and breakfasts, inns, lodges, and boutique hotels. In the past year, Select Registry revealed its creative rebrand and reestablished its unique position in the independent lodging industry—owning and coining the “third category” Craft Lodging.
Select Registry needed a new website that would reflect its brand and retain and attract travelers seeking the craft lodging experiences that its portfolio offered. The goal was simple—increase site traffic and engagement with member properties’ listings while also providing inspirational and informative content that spoke to the craft lodging experience. Select Registry sought to leverage its collective reach to increase exposure for independent lodging providers that would not have the budget or size to achieve the same results on their own.
The new website organically connects with travelers through regional and experience-based searches. A robust search bar with advanced filtering by location, interest, property features, and amenities helps users find their perfect property, and custom map functionality provides a user-friendly location-based search allowing guests to visualize the 260+ options across the country. The user experience is also built around curated blog content for each property, otherwise known as “The Journal”—speaking to travelers at every stage of the consumer journey and encouraging engagement with the site.
