6. Analysis
Although Ritz Carlton has a « corporate » designed website, they do have a mobile
application compare to Renaissance which has a more « bloggy » designed website but no
application
With Ritz Carlton application, clients can have access to the concierge information
anywhere and the hotels can follows their clients habits
Renaissance by calling its website « Rnavigator » made an error by not having an app that
you can check anywhere at anytime.
As Renaissance website is designed as a lifestyle blog, they put forward the fact that they
have « local experts » (local concierge) that provide the informations.
