Well-being While On The Road

Let's Rise, the US$ 30 million brand campaign underscores how Westin tackles the travel and wellness trends unveiled in a new global survey.

Westin Hotels & Resorts, part of Marriott International, Inc, recently unveiled its first global brand campaign in more than five years, taking on the disruptions, distractions and unpredictability of travel and empowering travellers to embrace well-being as a way to regain control of their routines and be their best while on the road. The US$ 30 million dollar, integrated advertising campaign – called Let’s Rise – communicates Westin’s commitment to its guests’ well-being before, during and after their stay. The Let’s Rise campaign will be featured in broadcast, digital, radio and out-of-home channels, with print placements to follow later this year. The Let’s Rise mantra will also serve as an anchor for the wellness programmes and partnerships that roll out for guests and associates throughout the year.

Westin’s Let’s Rise campaign is inspired by and illustrative of the wellness and travel trends fueling the future of both industries, as articulated in a new global study conducted in partnership with Study

Logic that surveyed travellers in North America, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Germany, the United Arab Emirates and China. The results show a seismic shift in the way today’s travellers prioritise their well-being. With less time and more disruptors on the road, they are reinventing business and leisure travel to put things like fitness first with new vigor to pursue mindfulness and adventure.

“Let’s Rise is perfectly positioned to connect with travellers as more of a rally-cry than a brand campaign, given today’s over-scheduled and always-on culture. Around the world, we are seeing travellers realigning their priorities to put their well-being first, and Westin is proud to empower our guests to rise to the occasion and be their best selves on the road,” says Brian Povinelli, global brand leader, Westin Hotels & Resorts.
