Execution of creative services, content production, and digital campaigns to drive direct bookings at a brand new, 5-star Hyatt property.

Client overview

Hyatt is a globally recognised leader in hospitality, operating over 1,300 hotels worldwide.

In November 2024, Hyatt launched a new 5-star property in Malta’s prime tourism hub of St. Julian’s. The hotel features 170 rooms, including 22 suites, three restaurants, a rooftop pool, a spa, a fitness centre, and business facilities.

Our role was to lead the go-to-market strategy for the property’s launch and drive its long-term digital marketing efforts, ensuring the hotel achieved strong positioning, high occupancy, and maximised direct bookings.

The challenge

With the hotel opening in a highly competitive market saturated with premium hospitality brands, our objectives were clear:

Maintain High Occupancy Rates

We needed to ensure consistent high occupancy across both peak and low seasons, positioning the hotel as a top-tier choice for travellers.

Maximise Direct Bookings

We aimed to increase direct bookings through Hyatt Centric’s website, reducing dependency on OTAs and improving profitability.

Drive Brand Advocacy

We sought to build a strong digital presence and social voice, leveraging user-generated content to convert guests into brand advocates.

The solution

Our strategy was built around an integrated social media and performance-driven marketing approach, ensuring Hyatt Centric Malta gained visibility and engaged high-value audiences.

01
Creative Strategy & Brand Positioning

To differentiate the property, we crafted two distinct creative directions:

In-Location Experience
Showcasing the hotel’s luxurious amenities, rooms, dining options, and overall guest experience.
Out-of-Location Experience
Highlighting the hotel’s connectivity to Malta’s cultural sites, nightlife, and attractions, positioning it as the ideal base for exploring the island.

Additionally, we aligned our messaging with Hyatt’s global Stay Centric brand strategy, focusing on memorable, seamless, and personalised guest experiences.

02
Content Production

We executed a high-quality, on-site production of both video and static content, designed to:

Showcase the property’s luxury appeal across social media, paid campaigns, and digital assets.
Enable ongoing distribution of professional, brand-aligned content across Hyatt’s digital channels.
03
Social Media Management

We managed Hyatt Centric’s social media presence end-to-end, ensuring:

Consistent brand voice and storytelling across platforms.
Engaging, shareable content that encouraged user-generated interactions.
Real-time community engagement to enhance guest satisfaction and brand advocacy.
04
Creator Collaborations

To expand Hyatt Centric’s reach, we partnered with travel influencers and content creators to generate authentic, engaging content. These collaborations helped: 

Drive awareness among high-intent audiences through influencer-generated content.
Increase social engagement, amplifying the brand’s presence in key tourism markets.
05
Performance Marketing

We executed highly targeted digital advertising campaigns to increase visibility and drive direct bookings, including:

Retargeting campaigns to re-engage website visitors and convert them into bookings.
Lookalike audience campaigns to reach high-intent travellers similar to Hyatt’s existing guests.
Paid social and display ads optimised for maximum conversion efficiency.
“From the very first engagement, it became clear that Bullshark was not just another marketing agency—they were true partners eager to dive deep into our brand and help us elevate our presence in the competitive hospitality industry.
