The Little America Hotel Website

Posted by

Since opening as a roadside travelers’ oasis over 60 years ago, The Little America Hotel has expanded to 4 locations in the West, and hosted visitors from all over the globe. Each location is independently managed and closely integrated into its surrounding community. 

As part of the Grand America Hotels and Resorts family, The Little America needed a website that integrated well with the family of properties, while also retaining their signature brand of hospitality. Our approach was based on three areas of focus: 1. Develop a strategic brand platform that accurately communicates their shared heritage and values, as well as their unique locales, 2. Refresh their brand image with sophisticated yet approachable visuals, 3. Create a website that feels standardized with other properties but customized to Little America’s unique experience.

Hint helped identify that their gracious accommodations, attention to detail and personalized service were not translating in their site experience. Our approach was based on three areas of focus: 1. Develop a strategic brand platform that embodied their luxurious in-person experience 2. Refresh their brand image through large impactful imagery. 3. Rebuild the website from the ground up with a responsive design.

The Grand has seen 30% increase in conversions and 50% increase in ecommerce, and dwell time was up an impressive 83% in the first 6 months.
