“Umi Digital do a fantastic job overseeing the management of the Good Hotel Guide website.

They are organised and very responsive to requests. They are also strategically strong and very solution oriented. They have spearheaded numerous projects for us, including thinking about a whole new platform for the website. And their approach to solving day-to-day problems is thorough and timely.

They are also very nice people, which is a real plus! Harry Fielder in particular is a real partner for us, proactive, strategic and solution-oriented all at the same time. And he explains complex issues very clearly.”

Richard Fraiman

CEO, Good Hotel Guide

“[When COVID hit,] Umi’s team were always on hand to offer advice and guidance on what they were seeing across their clients and helped reduce costs where possible. On reopening we worked together on implementing a more targeted approach to our Paid Ad strategy. Umi offered advice and practical know how on implementation. Since then, our relationship and the performance of the account has gone from strength to strength. Since the start of this year, we have seen 3X more ROAS and converted at the best rate in the account’s history. 

I’m always happy to recommend Umi Digital not only for paid Ads, but for digital marketing in the hotel industry. I have no doubt about the team’s capability across all aspects of digital marketing for hotels.”

Yogesh Ram

Director of Marketing, Safestay PLC

“We made a decision to partner with Umi in the development of our website.  As a new brand concept and a new property it was important that we work with a company that would care about our brand as much as we do. This decision has turned out to be one of the better decisions as they have proved their worth over and again – from initial creation of the website to our sometimes short lead times for changes and modifications to design Umi have been there with us all the way, and now that we are live they continue to assist us with our (frequent) changes and development along with our SEO / PPC in addition to running our Social Media Campaigns and targeted marketing.  A great team, from head to toe, led by a great leader. Thanks Umi for making our lives much easier.”

Darren Evans

Director of Business Development, The Other House

“We embarked on a relationship with UMI Digital since February, 2022 for our resorts in Mauritius & Marrakech. Our dealings with Harry, Tom, Sophia and the team have been professional and enriching, whilst we started our journey into the digital landscape for The Oberoi. Their guidance, suggestions, intuitive ideas and speed of delivery has helped us improve our digital footprint. We look forward eagerly to growing our business with their constant help and support as we target the new age customer.”

Dhiren Pereira

“We have been working with Umi since 2019 to manage our website and increase our direct bookings. Sophia, Harry and the Umi team provide strategic guidance across marketing and technology and help us keep the website up to date. 

The team are very approachable, quick  and efficient in helping us if we have a problem which is very much appreciated. 

We look forward to continuing working with Umi and seeing what we can achieve together in the future.”
