The Experience Ecology
A BRAND AND HOSPITALITY EVALUATION BY GENERAL EARTH
Every hotel has an experience ecology: a living system made up of people, spaces, service, operations and the countless interactions that connect them. When one element thrives, it strengthens the whole. When something is out of balance, guests feel it and the experience starts to erode.
The Experience Ecology looks beyond individual moments to understand how the entire ecosystem is functioning, revealing opportunities to strengthen connection, remove friction and create experiences that guests remember long after they've left.

The Experience Ecology is a service offered by Lindsay McCarthy, a creative hospitality expert.
