Gradigio and the Witt Istanbul Suites Launch a New Type of Hotel Website
Istanbul, Turkey, July 03, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Witt Istanbul Suites has partnered with Gradigio to produce a new, guest-focused website.
Just one year after opening, the Witt Istanbul Suites have been recognized by magazines such as Conde Nast, National Geographic, and Wallpaper as one of the world's hottest new design hotels. Showcasing the work of Istanbul design duo Autoban, the hotel offers 17 luxury suites for the price of a standard room elsewhere.
Instead of the usual boring hotel website, Witt owner Tuncel Toprak envisioned building a web presence that would enable potential guests to experience his unique hotel before they arrive, and be aware of all the city has to offer with a unique Insider Guide blog.
"I wanted a site more about the guests, and less about us," said Tuncel Toprak, founder and owner of the Witt Suites. "It had to be rich in content, useful to potential guests, and hopefully answering most of their questions."
The new website allows users to experience what their stay at the hotel will be like. Through detailed descriptions and rich media, potential guests can learn more about the experience offered by Witt.
"When Tuncel contacted me, I immediately knew we could build a more interactive web presence for this unique hotel," said Josiah Mackenzie, Managing Director of Gradigio. "Together, we created a web presence that people will find very useful in planning their stay in Istanbul."
In keeping with changes in technology, Gradigio helped the Witt Istanbul Suites launch a multi-website strategy that connects with fans on social networks around the web. Profiles were set up on social media sharing websites like Flickr and YouTube, and separate domain names (such as WittVideo.com) were launched to provide quick access to information.
