Preserve Your Travel Memories With The Ritz-Carlton App

App Now Allows Creation of Personalized, Shareable Travel Posters


CHEVY CHASE, MD – WEBWIRE

The Ritz-Carlton knows the value of a photo is not only its aesthetic quality, but in the memory that it evokes. Enhancements to the luxury hotel company’s app are live, allowing the creation of personalized travel posters on smart phones and tablets for all Ritz-Carlton App users globally.

Imagine being able to capture the beauty of an island sunset and then personalizing the photo with a destination stamp. Through a new travel poster feature, The Ritz-Carlton guests can transform their own photos into unique, vintage-inspired posters capturing their travel memories in a distinct and shareable way. The Ritz-Carlton is renowned for the importance it places on creating indelible memories for its guests, and providing a digital tool to curate a memory-evoking travel poster is an extension of a commitment to capture and share rare and special moments as they happen at each of The Ritz-Carlton hotels and resorts.

“A picture is worth a thousand words and a beautiful way to hold on to the memories we want to preserve” said Ed French, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. “Our guests can now curate their own images with special filters, effects, the ability to crop, to add destination titles, stamps and to create vintage-style posters that capture their favorite travel memories. They will then be able to share their posters across social media channels, or save them to a personal on-device camera roll, storing the travel memory forever.”

The steps to create a travel poster are simple. Upon opening The Ritz-Carlton App, users should click to open the travel posters feature. From there, select the option to access a photo from the album or take a photo. A photo editor tool provides 48 destination stamps, stickers, frames, effects and cropping tools. When completed, the ability to add a caption and post to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram is at the click of a button.

Guests are also encouraged to share their poster across social channels using #RCMemories for the chance to have their signature travel moment captured by The Ritz-Carlton and shared on the brand Instagram channel or on ritzcarlton.com/yourmemories. ‘Your Memories’ displays photos of captured moments as they are shared by guests on Twitter and Instagram and tagged with #RCMemories. As travelers share their personal experiences at Ritz-Carlton hotels and resorts, The ‘Your Memories’ page displays inspiring, dynamic, mosaic-like wall of images that is continuously refreshed.

Capture the beauty of the world as you travel. Show what you saw and experienced. Those moments — your moments — are the ones you’ll want to share and remember.
