SPIRE Hospitality

I have unofficially given myself the “SPIRE Brand Police” title because the look and feel of our product extends beyond the construction and design of the hotel itself. Our printed collateral, digital marketing material and social media posts are just as much a reflection of the hotel as anything else. We want to make sure our branded hotels are following the proper identity guidelines because we have better chances of getting noticed by the brands for future marketing partnership opportunities. For our independents, we spend a lot of time and money on creating the identity and story for those brands.
