Le Hotel – The Marcel Tour

ABOUT THE WORK

To drive hotel bookings in a fresh and unexpected way, we created an experience that turns a universal behaviour – asking for discounts – into an entire experience. After all, in hospitality, guests are always looking for upgrades… and we know that being polite to AI tends to get you further.

Welcome to LeHotel and its concierge, Marcel – a personality-driven AI who rewards charm, roasts rudeness, and always delivers with wit. Guests interact with Marcel in a live chat environment, where every message is judged in real-time.

Be delightful, and you might earn a discount code. Be rude? Expect dry wit, no rewards, and possibly a little shame. As an Easter egg, users can also tap “Take the Marcel Tour” to unlock a hidden, interactive walkthrough of LeHotel’s finest (and most absurd) facilities – narrated entirely by Marcel. Part campaign, part theatre, part emotional Turing test – LeHotel reimagines hospitality through humour, personality, and playful reward.
