Mumbai: Corona has launched a campaign around stunning sunset views. The aim is to see that when guests step into a hotel room they are greeted by sunset views every evening. With the introduction of the world’s first sunset view rating system for luxury hotel rooms, Corona India is aiming to make progress in this regard.
This move is being piloted at a selection of luxury hotels including the CGH Brunton Boatyard, Niraamaya Surya Samudra and Brij Laxman Sagar located in Kochi, Kovalam and Pali respectively.
The campaign has been conceptualised in partnership with Digitas India, part of Publicis Groupe India, the campaign enables luxury travellers to check out the sunset rating of hotels across the country on Cred Escapes, a luxury travel platform for India’s 1%.
With nearly 90% of people in cities spending their time indoors, the allure of sun tourism has been on the rise. Recognising this trend, Corona India set out to create a solution—a sunset visual quality rating system akin to a Michelin Star for restaurants.
Developed by an interdisciplinary team of atmospheric scientists and big data analysts, the rating system utilises 43 years of historical atmospheric data from ECMWF and NASA to establish a new benchmark in sunset quality. The prediction model analyses various parameters such as location, wind speed, AQI and cloud cover to score the sunset quality from a hotel room on a 5-point scale.
“We all believe in taking a moment from our busy everyday lives to enjoy the beauty of sunsets. If a hotel room can guarantee impeccable service and a host of amenities, why can’t it promise a great sunset view? With The Corona Sunset View, we aim to forever reimagine how people experience sunsets – relaxing and unwinding with their friends and enjoying a cold Corona served with a lime,” said Vineet Sharma, VP marketing, trade marketing, AB InBev India.
“We’ve all been to that one hotel where everything is perfect, and yet been disappointed with the sunset view after spending a considerable amount of time and money planning a holiday. The Corona Sunset View combines unique scientific data and predictive modelling to solve a real-world problem, ensuring that sunset seekers can enjoy their moments with certainty, and making Corona the reference point for the world’s most beautiful sunsets,” said Abraham Varughese, chief creative officer, Digitas India.
