Why creative press relations are more important than ever for the hotel and tourism industry in the age of AI – and how businesses will be found by potential guests in the future.
Artificial intelligence now programs entire websites, creates social media posts, and produces content at lightning speed. Much of what we see every day is now AI-generated and therefore “fake.” At the same time, Google is changing the visibility of paid ad campaigns, and hoteliers fear that this will result in fewer bookings via this important channel in the future. The question is therefore more relevant and pressing than ever: “Who will future guests even find in this flood of content – and by what means?”
Visibility comes when content is relevant—for guests and for search engines. Press relations are therefore not just an “advertising tool,” but a strategic lever in digital competition. If an article is published in a strong medium (whether print or online) and then integrated into the company's website, a valuable link is created. This not only increases visibility on Google, ChatGPT & Co, but also strengthens the image – and leads to relevant bookings. Journalistic content in particular fulfills all the criteria that are crucial for long-term visibility and relevance on Google & Co. But good press work is not a product of chance – it requires experience, journalistic flair, and a network that works.
We combine media relations and tourism marketing with the latest expertise in AI. While others focus on mass appeal, we ensure that real stories end up in real media. And that's exactly what makes the difference today.

History is often a matter of perspective. Forgotten Heroines by Stefanie von Wietersheim shifts precisely this perspective – calmly, thoroughly and with great narrative power. The book brings together portraits of women who were pioneers, visionaries and trailblazers, yet whose achievements are scarcely embedded in the collective memory. Not because they were insignificant, but because history has long been told selectively.
Stefanie von Wietersheim traces the life stories of these women with journalistic precision and narrative depth. She tells the story of Hedy Lamarr, who was not only a film icon but also played a part in developing the technology on which today’s Bluetooth connections are based. She also profiles political figures, social pioneers and creative minds from the worlds of art, fashion and advertising – such as the woman who coined the legendary slogan ‘I love New York’ and thereby redefined city marketing.

The best way to discover Rome is through its food. A Guest in Rome is less a traditional cookbook than a culinary stroll through the city – guided by Stefan Maiwald and brought to life visually by Andrea Di Lorenzo. Between antipasti and dolci, Roman cuisine unfolds as a living culture: authentic, unpretentious and deeply rooted.
Alongside iconic recipes such as cacio e pepe, carciofi alla romana and saltimbocca, the book opens doors to hidden trattorias, markets and cafés that lie far off the beaten track. Anecdotes, historical context and precise insider tips make it clear why food in Rome is always about identity too. A book that combines travel and cuisine – and inspires you to experience Rome with all your senses, whether you’re there or at home.
