Group and Events Leveraging 226 rooms and 31 suites across a 24-floor historic property, The Kimpton Harper Hotel is well positioned to win group business, conferences, and social events in downtown Fort Worth. Proposals can include turnkey event packages, on-site venues, and the hotel's dining outlets Il Modo and Refinery 714 to upsell meals, receptions, and themed events to planners and corporate clients.
Beverage Partnerships Strategic beverage and culinary partnerships have proven effective for the Harper, including Veuve Clicquot and high-profile dining experiences. Proposing co-branded product launches, pop-up tastings, or exclusive tasting menus with beverage brands can drive incremental revenue and provide visibility for brand partners and the hotel alike, especially for corporate entertaining and charity events.
CRM Driven Sales Sales and marketing systems include Salesforce, enabling targeted account-based selling and CRM-driven outreach to Fort Worth area companies, associations, and regional travel buyers. Opportunities include establishing preferred corporate programs, negotiated room blocks, and streamlined post-event follow-ups to convert leads into repeat stays and recurring events.
Experience Upsell Leveraging venue features like a rooftop observation deck, Refinery 714 lounge, and Sushi Fridays, there are strong upsell opportunities for premium suites, weekend getaways, anniversary stays, and corporate incentive programs. Packaging experiences with dining and room upgrades can elevate ADR and occupancy for both leisure and corporate blocks.
