Travelers read an average of 9 reviews before booking a hotel. OTAs reward properties that respond to reviews with higher search placements — and Google Maps does the same. Hotels with a 90%+ reply rate see a 12% boost in direct bookings, reducing dependency on costly OTA commissions.
The Minnesota Market
Healthcare (UnitedHealth, Mayo Clinic), retail (Target, Best Buy headquarters), agriculture, and a diversified Fortune 500 cluster in the Twin Cities. Strong outdoors-and-cabin tourism in the north.

Hotel Operators in Minnesota see review volume swing dramatically with season. Auto-reply during peak ensures every customer is acknowledged when manual response can't keep up — and replies you collect in busy season anchor the rest of the year's local-search visibility.
The challenge
Your front desk has a million priorities — check-ins, check-outs, guest requests, and staff coordination. Following up with every post-stay reviewer falls to the bottom of the list. Most hotels respond to fewer than 40% of their reviews.
The solution
Both — but for different reasons. Responding to positive reviews encourages future guests to leave reviews (they see it's worth the effort). Responding to negatives demonstrates accountability and can flip the perception of potential guests reading along.
Each ReplyBase account covers one Google Business Profile. For groups with multiple properties, you can run a separate ReplyBase account per property today; native multi-property support is on the roadmap.
Minnesota markets often see lower review volumes per business — many customers tend to write reviews only when service was excellent or terrible. That can make each individual review carry more weight than in higher-volume markets, so engaging warmly with all of them helps maintain an active profile.
