BWH HOTEL GROUP ® CELEBRATES CONTINUED MOMENTUM ACROSS GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS
Phoenix, Arizona (May 3, 2022) – Leading hospitality company, BWH Hotel Group, continues to expand its global footprint with its growing presence in over 100 key destinations worldwide. Through expansion, new brand launches and acquisitions, today’s BWH Hotel Group is a modern and innovative global hospitality powerhouse with 18 distinctive brands across every chain scale segment – from luxury to economy – providing unique offerings and experiences that suit the needs of every traveler and developer.
“Our industry is finally on the road to recovery after enduring one of the most challenging periods in its history,” said Larry Cuculic, President and Chief Executive Officer, BWH Hotel Group. “At BWH Hotel Group we have remained committed to supporting our hoteliers, ensuring the wellbeing of our guests, and driving the industry forward through recovery. It is extremely gratifying to see these efforts paying off as we celebrate continued success in our development initiatives across the globe.”
Strengthening Company’s Global Operations
To further build on its global success, earlier this spring BWH Hotel Group announced the promotion of Ron Pohl to serve as the company’s President of International Operations and President of WorldHotels™. Pohl joined the organization in 2007 and previously served as Senior Vice President and Chief Operations Officer. In his new role, Pohl will be responsible for further strengthening the organization’s presence around the world and enhancing the company’s operations on a global level.
“We have made significant strides in diversifying our portfolio and offering new and exciting brands that exceed developer and guest expectations. I am looking forward to working more closely with our global partners, company leadership and corporate staff to build upon our track record of success,” said Ron Pohl, President of International Operations and President of WorldHotels.
Building Upon Foundation of Success
Prior to expanding its portfolio to reach every market segment, BWH Hotel Group focused on the strength of its core brands, including Best Western®, Best Western Plus® and Best Western Premier®. In recent years core brand hotel owners committed to investing billions of dollars in property improvements and renovations, revealing a suite of revitalized properties that appeal to the modern traveler. Today these brands boast 3,171 properties worldwide and a further 284 properties in the global pipeline.
Offering Flexible and Modern Hotel Solutions
With a strong foundation in place, BWH Hotel Group began expanding its portfolio with its soft collection offerings, which following the 2019 acquisition of WorldHotels™, includes seven total brands covering every market segment. The company’s soft collection offerings include BW Signature Collection®, BW Premier Collection® and WorldHotels Collection, which collectively have approximately 300 active hotels and resorts worldwide, and a further 85 new properties in the global pipeline. Recent notable soft collection openings around the world can be viewed here .
Providing Travelers A Unique Experience with Boutique Hotels
Another key area of success for the hotel group includes the launch of its four boutique offerings: Vīb®, GLō®, Sadie® and Aiden®. These additions played a critical role in contemporizing the BWH Hotel Group brand and expanding its reach into the upscale segment with unique boutique offerings. Today there are over 30 open boutique hotels around the world with a further 44 in the boutique pipeline. Recent notable openings include Aiden in Sydney, Australia and Vīb in Tempe, Arizona.
Leading the Economy Segment
BWH Hotel Group has also experienced significant success with its SureStay Hotel Group, launched in 2016, and boasts nearly 400 properties globally making it one of the fastest growing brands in the hotel industry today. The group is comprised of four unique brands: SureStay®, SureStay Plus®, SureStay Collection® and SureStay Studio SM , offering guests a variety of options across the economy segment. The brand is known as a trusted and respected lodging option among travelers, being named #1 in the economy segment in the J.D. Power 2020 and 2021 North America Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index Study.
Looking to the Future
“At BWH Hotel Group we’re constantly monitoring the wants and needs of today’s guests to ensure our hoteliers can deliver a modern product offering that appeals to the next generation of travelers,” commented Brad LeBlanc, Senior Vice President and Chief Development Officer, BWH Hotel Group. “Our core brands will always remain a focus but we’re seeing a growing demand for soft collections and boutique brands from both developers and travelers – and at BWH Hotel Group we’re well-positioned to be a leader in these segments. We’re also looking to the future and what lies ahead in the development world, and for us that’s extended stay.”
Rounding out BWH Hotel Group’s portfolio are the company’s extended stay options: Executive Residency and SureStay Studio. The extended stay segment is poised to be a big focus for the company in 2022 and beyond as BWH Hotel Group looks to expand its footprint across these brands.
“I am proud of our wide-reaching portfolio,” added Cuculic. “With 18 distinctive brands across every chain scale segment, I am confident that our flexible and modern hotel solutions will continue to exceed guest and developer expectations in markets across the globe.”

How Best Western’s Strategy to Engage in the Moment is Driving Innovation
Best Western’s strategy to engage in the moment has allowed the company to increase hotel guest satisfaction. And, it’s enabled the chain to innovate at scale.
Tools that help hotel owners and operators understand their guests are essential to the customer experience strategy — especially during tumultuous times that can often test customer loyalty.
Look to hospitality giant Best Western® Hotels & Resorts , which has used Medallia’s voice-of-the-customer solutions for over 10 years, as an example. When the COVID-19 outbreak began, the company did what it had always done: used feedback and verbatim comments in text analytics to help understand guest sentiment around safety and cleanliness protocols. A/B testing changes in operations and procedures allowed the company to see the impact certain areas had on satisfaction. This enabled Best Western to create a “We Care Clean®” program , completely driven by guest feedback.
I recently sat down with Colby Hutchinson, Director of Customer Experience, Education and Training at Best Western, to learn more about the company’s experience this past year and how the hotel chain has relied on customer feedback to make operational improvements as well as increase hotel guest satisfaction and loyalty.
Thanks for taking the time to speak with us, Colby! We’d love to get your insight on some of the changes you’re seeing in the hospitality and travel industry. Can you tell us what are the biggest challenges or obstacles to providing a great customer experience today?
Sure. The first one is being able to gather, analyze and operationalize guest signals from multiple channels within a rapidly changing marketplace to deliver a meaningful experience based on those fast-changing expectations. And second would be creating opportunities for our hotels and their frontline staff to personalize experiences based on individual preferences in a way that grows brand advocates and loyalty.
With that in mind, what is something you’ve learned during the past year about your customers that has surprised you?
The impact engaging with guests has on loyalty has been a surprise. We assumed engaging with guests was important, but the recent research we conducted in partnership with Medallia and Cornell proved how impactful it can be.
When we can create tools and the opportunities that allow our individual hotels to quickly and easily respond to guests in their channel of choice, it creates a virtuous circle where our hotels learn what guests love and what they don’t. This knowledge lets operators innovate at scale to produce an experience better aligned with guest expectations. Through the dialog, the guest feels heard and is able to create an emotional connection, with both the individual hotel and our brand. They know someone is listening and cares. The connection increases intent to return and to recommend, which helps start the cycle over again.
A big takeaway is that we learned the interactions we strive for in hospitality are happening in person as well as digitally. In both instances, we have the ability to demonstrate our care, concern and hospitality for our customers.
What customer experience metrics or KPIs are most important in your strategy, and why?
We use NPS® and overall experience. Through our work with Medallia Institute we’ve been able to isolate some of the most important factors that drive them, such as cleanliness and breakfast.
But in general, I would advise all customer experience professionals to look long and hard at their customers’ feedback. What is a core contributor to overall satisfaction may change over time. Something that drives tremendous impact to guest loyalty now may fade or completely change. That’s why it’s so critical to have an active voice-of-the-customer program built around listening and engaging. Customers will tell us where they want us to go. They’ll tell us what we get right and where we have opportunities to improve.
The ability to review, measure, test and adapt in real time is a defining criteria to me for companies that were relevant yesterday, maintain that relevance today and will continue to be relevant tomorrow in their respective marketplaces.
You’re a wealth of knowledge, with over 25 years working in hospitality. What advice would you give to someone starting their career in the industry?
At its core, hospitality is about serving others. My advice for those starting out would be to learn how to take joy in serving, and really seek out the opportunities to create memories for people. Each guest, both internal and external, is unique and has unique needs. Finding ways to create memories for guests and colleagues is a transferable skill that will reward you for your entire career and in life. It helps provide the foundation for relationships and friendships that will last a lifetime.
I appreciate you taking the time to chat with me today, Colby. One last question for you. What is one of the biggest lessons you’ve learned so far in your career?
I’ve found tremendous value in striving to be a credit maker, not a credit taker. Sustained success is only achievable by a team of engaged people working collaboratively toward a clear and understood goal. Being a credit maker shows respect for team members and demonstrates high emotional intelligence. In my experience, it’s helped to grow teams that operate with very high levels of trust. It’s the team working together that drives results. No one can do it alone, and everyone wants to feel someone has their back and is invested in seeing them succeed.

Customers Weigh In on Best Western Through New Survey System
Half a million customers weigh in on best western through new survey system.
PHOENIX | Best Western's nearly 4,200 hotels around the globe are getting advice on how to run their business from an important audience: customers. Today, the brand's new customer feedback solution, Medallia, received its 500,000th completed survey, after implementing the system just six months ago.
"Having customers tell us what we're doing right and wrong helps us to enhance the Best Western experience for the nearly 400,000 guests that stay with us each night, " said Ric Leutwyler, Best Western International's senior vice president of brand quality and member service. "Our mission is nothing less than to lead the industry in customer care, and the Medallia guest survey is a major step toward that goal."
After a guest stays at a Best Western property, Medallia sends an e-mail with links to an online survey. Once the survey is completed, the data goes directly into the Medallia customer experience management system, allowing properties to track guest satisfaction and identify any problem areas that need to be addressed.
"We are thrilled to join forces with Best Western International, the world's largest hotel chain," said Elizabeth Carducci, head of Medallia's hospitality practice group. "Medallia's program for Best Western is probably one of the single largest global integrated programs - certainly in the hotel industry - with deployment in 78 countries and more than 18 languages."
Leutwyler noted that a customer-focused culture of care will differentiate Best Western International from other hotel chains in the coming years, and that Medallia is a critical partner in this endeavor.

Customer Care Improvements at Best Western
The challenge.
In 2016, Mursion partnered with Best Western® Hotels and Resorts to help one of the world’s largest hotel chains reach its vision to “lead the industry in superior customer care.” After field testing the Mursion virtual simulation platform, Best Western integrated simulations into its “I Care – Every Guest, Every Time” program, a site-based training program designed to improve guest interactions throughout the guest’s hotel stay.
The Solution
Delivered directly to all of Best Western’s North American properties by a team of 42 regional training coaches called regional services managers, the program emphasizes problem resolution, an area of customer service that challenged many Best Western sites according to customer feedback data provided to Best Western by Medallia, Inc. No role faced greater customer service challenges than that of front desk clerks, who have to manage the short tempers and high demands of tired and often frustrated business travelers every day. Best Western’s front desk training included the following:
- Training Module: Each front desk staff member participates in a module that is delivered by a regional services manager focused on how to implement Best Western’s service standards, while going above and beyond the call of duty for every customer.
- Live Simulation: Each front desk staff person participates in 1-2 live virtual simulations with Mursion, in which they interact with avatar-based characters that present challenging issues that mimic real-life customer problems.
- After-Action Review: Immediately following the simulation sessions, regional service managers and general managers deliver standards-based feedback to front desk staff, and the team reflects on how to better handle similar problems moving forward.
“Results from the program are staggering. Hotels that received the training experienced the highest short term gains in customer satisfaction that Best Western has ever measured in such a short period of time.”
– Bruce Weinberg, VP of Operations at Best Western
Customer Benefit
Initial results of the program based on the first cohort of 380 hotels who received this training, demonstrate that Mursion is delivering on its promise to transform customer service. As Best Western recently reported, “Results from the program are staggering. Hotels that received the training experienced the highest short-term gains in customer satisfaction that Best Western has ever measured in such a short period of time.” The average cost to design and deliver the simulations driving these extraordinary outcomes was less than $165 per hotel.
- Hotels experienced an average of 2-5% gains in post-stay guest satisfaction survey ratings compared to flat rates for non-participating hotels.
- Gains were strongest for problem resolution (5.1%), the main focus of the simulation-based training. 97% of hotels reported being highly satisfied with the training.
- Best Western credits Mursion for helping them to sweep the upper midscale in midscale brands in nearly every customer service category, including “helpful and courteous service” (Business Traveler News, 2017).
Based on the success of the first phase of the project, Best Western and Mursion are currently planning a second phase of training that will include simulations for front desk staff on how to better serve Best Western Rewards members. The front desk agents “actually are being tested while learning in a much more fun environment,” said Best Western Hotels & Resorts Chief Marketing Officer and SVP Dorothy Dowling.
