Branded Merchandise for Hotels

Arcadia provides a wide range of branded and printed merchandise for hotels, from marketing banners and POS displays to clothing, drinkware, stationery and wellness supplies.

As a long-term merchandise partner for independent, franchised and high-end hotels, as well as cruise operators, we have the products and services to promote your hotel establishment, highlight key touchpoints and help provide your guests with an outstanding stay that leaves a lasting impression. 

Branded Merchandise That Enhances the Guest Experience

Branded merchandise plays a key role in the hospitality industry, whether you're welcoming guests to a boutique hotel, an international hotel group or a cruise ship. Branding on quality products, technology, touchpoints and other areas of a hotel reinforces brand identity, promotes your business as premium and helps to create memorable experiences for guests. 

Having consistent branded merchandise across multiple hotels means guests will know on return to your hotel that the positive experience they had before will be repeated every time. Plus, you can also generate additional revenue through retail merchandise. Items such as shampoos, coasters, pens, guest welcome packs and glassware found in guests’ rooms and lobby areas won’t be just plain, standardised items and products, they’ll make your brand shine and showcase your hotel as one that delivers quality for every guest that stays.
