How to choose a hotel business name

Choosing a good hotel name is an important part of establishing your business. However, there's more to selecting a business name than just choosing something that sounds nice.

Here are a few considerations you must take into account:

Consider your hotel brand identity and target audience

A strong hotel name can help build your brand's identity, encourage brand recognition, and create a good first impression. You want your guests to connect your hotel name with your quality service and excellent hospitality.

When brainstorming hotel name ideas, consider the kind of experience you want to evoke and the audience you want to attract. For example, if you offer an affordable, no-frills accommodation for guests on shoestring budgets, your hotel name should be different from the name you'd give an elite vintage villa designed for VIP travelers.

Pick a memorable name

You don't want your hotel business name to get lost in the mix, but you also don't want it to be so obscure that your target audience can't remember it. It's important to choose a unique and catchy name that will stick with people without going too far into left field.

As you're brainstorming, think of words that conjure up feelings associated with your hotel experience or phrases that align with your brand goals. This will help you create a cohesive business name that catches the attention of your potential guests.

Comply with government naming guidelines

You must comply with state and federal rules that oversee business names. The following are some regulations to consider when naming your hotel business:

• Your hotel name must be distinguishable from other registered business names.
• The name cannot include offensive words.
• Your hotel business name cannot falsely imply an association with a government agency.
• Your name cannot include words alluding to regulated industries—such as bank, insurance, or lawyer—unless you have government approval.
• The business name cannot be the same as one that's already trademarked.

Check your business name’s availability

To determine if your business name is already trademarked, search the trademark database on the United States Patent and Trademark Office's website, or allow LegalZoom to perform a trademark search for you.

Just as you can't use a hotel business name already trademarked, you can't use one already registered with the state. Moreover, your hotel business name cannot be deceptively similar to other registered business names, so you should run a business name availability search to ensure it's distinct. Navigate to your Secretary of State's website to perform a business name search.

At this stage, it's also a good idea to check domain availability of your business name. Having a website domain name that matches your hotel name is important for building an online presence and helping your potential clients find information about your hotel on the internet.

How to reserve your hotel name

Once you've decided on the perfect name for your hotel, you can form your business. If you’re not ready to get started quite yet, it’s a good idea to reserve your desired name with the state. This will put a hold on your name for 120 days so no one else can take it while you prepare to form your business. To reserve your name, contact your Secretary of State's office, fill out a name reservation form, and pay the filing fee.

After reserving your business name or forming your business, register for your domain name so that you can start building your website. We also recommend creating your social media accounts in your business’ name on platforms like Facebook and Instagram to further establish your digital footprint.

With your hotel name sorted, you can move on to the next steps in establishing your business. Allow LegalZoom to cover everything to ensure your business is compliant, from filing the appropriate paperwork to applying for business licenses.

FAQs

Should I use a specific location in my hotel name?

Yes, including your specific location in your hotel name can be a selling point for potential customers. For example, if your hotel is near an airport, famous landmark, or popular attraction, referencing those specific locations could encourage potential guests to choose your accommodation over another.

What tools can help me brainstorm a hotel name?

We recommend using our AI-powered hotel name generator to help you brainstorm name ideas. Another option is to search for a single word in the thesaurus and then browse the synonyms and related words. It's also helpful to brainstorm random names with your friends or relatives until you find something that sticks.

Can I trademark my hotel’s name?

Yes, you can trademark your hotel's name. This is one way to protect your hotel business name and prevent others from using it. LegalZoom offers convenient trademark services to help you register your name.

Can I name my hotel after a famous person or place?

It depends. When selecting your name, you need to ensure that it's not already trademarked to avoid trademark infringement. Oftentimes, famous names and places are already trademarked, so you can't use them without running into red tape. Furthermore, there are trademark laws that prohibit using names that can cause confusion or suggest a false connection between a brand and an individual.
