3 Tips to Generate More Reviews with a Post-Stay Email
Creating a post-stay email template is a great way to easily and consistently follow up with guests to thank them for staying with you, to encourage feedback, and to avoid issues or concerns raised in an online review. Make sure it's written to fit your brand personality and give it a friendly and approachable tone.
Three Tips to encourage excellent reviews:
#1 - "Thank you for staying with us, we know you had a choice"
It's important to acknowledge that you appreciate they chose to book your accommodation, and that you enjoyed having them as guests. If you can, pick something about their stay unique to them that you can add in to personalise the messaging.
#2 - "If you can suggest any improvements we can make, please reply now and let us know."
This encourages guests to provide any concerns or potentially negative feedback to you directly via email rather than online. It's a great way to deal with any issues in private communications rather than on a review website.
#3 - "We trust you enjoyed your stay, we'd love your help to spread the word".
This is where you can request the valuable online review. Make it easy for them by providing the links to your Tripadvisor page and Google Business Profile so they don't have to go searching.

ResBook has been the perfect fit for our business, the system is easy to use and navigate and has many wonderful features that allow for quick look ups and amendments. The customer service team is quick to respond and can offer advice and solutions to all my queries, which is brilliant.

ResBook Customer Support, namely Priyanka, has been an amazing help throughout the entire process of bringing our business to life."
Liz Hayes, Nest Treehouses
ResBook has been brilliant to deal with. From setting up our booking system and also creating our website, they have made it really easy for me, and I'm not tech savvy at all. Priyanka and Estelle especially have been an amazing help.
