The reality

They Don't Use Google or Instagram.
They Plan Their Next Trip on Rednote.

If you're not there, you don't exist for the 155 million people deciding right now where to eat, sleep and visit in your city.

The journey

Five Steps Between a Chinese Traveller and Your Door.

And the two points where we step in. This is why most of our clients run both services instead of picking one.

  1. 01 Rednote · Douyin

    Dreaming

    Months before booking, they save posts about your city. Nothing is decided yet, but the shortlist is already forming.

  2. 02 Rednote

    Researching

    They search in Chinese and read thirty real reviews. If no creator has been to your venue, you are not in that search.

    We work here · KOL & KOC
  3. 03 Ctrip · Fliggy · Qunar

    Comparing

    The shortlist moves to the OTA, where your listing either exists with good photos and Chinese copy, or it doesn't exist at all.

  4. 04 Ctrip · Fliggy

    Booking

    The booking happens inside the app, in Chinese, paid with Chinese methods. No redirect to your website survives that.

    We work here · OTA store
  5. 05 Rednote

    Sharing

    They post their own review when they get home. That post becomes step 01 for the next traveller — which is why this compounds.

Step 05 feeds step 01. The content you pay for once keeps working on the next traveller.

Who this is for

Built for Venues Chinese Travellers Actually Search For.

Hospitality and tourism businesses that want to reach Chinese visitors abroad — and the Chinese students and expats already living in their city.

01 Hotels

Hotels & Hospitality

Boutique hotels, design-led properties, resorts and ryokans where Chinese travellers research, save and book based on what real Chinese creators show them.

02 Restaurants

Restaurants & F&B

From neighbourhood ramen shops in London to fine-dining icons in Paris — where Chinese diners, students and tourists become regular footfall once they find you.

03 Attractions

Tourist Attractions

Museums, immersive experiences, theme parks, gardens, observation decks, vineyards and tour operators that need to be in the itinerary, saved weeks before arrival.

What we do

We've put 50+ venues on the Chinese traveller's radar: visibility where they research, and authentic creator reviews where they decide.

Direct bookings

Chinese OTA Store Setup & Management

Presence on China's major online travel agencies, where Chinese travellers compare and book their next trip.

  • Account opening & verification
  • Listing optimisation: photos, copy, pricing
  • Ongoing management & availability

Chinese creators publish authentic reviews of your venue on the platforms where travellers discover and decide.

  • Creator selection with a relevant audience
  • Onsite & remote content
  • Reach & footfall reporting

Most clients combine both: the OTA presence captures the direct booking, the influencer campaign is what gets you chosen in the first place.

Most venues spend months building their own Rednote audience. The smarter play: partner with Chinese creators who already have one — their trust transfers to your venue instantly, at a fraction of the cost, with ROI you can actually measure.

FAQ

The Questions We Hear Most.

Anything we missed? Drop us a line — we reply within 24 hours.

Who is this service for?

Any business that benefits from Chinese visitor traffic — restaurants, hotels, tourist attractions, museums, retail experiences, tour operators. Most of our clients are based outside China, targeting Chinese travellers, students and expats abroad.

Do I need a Chinese-language website or social account?

No. Your Chinese visibility comes from authentic third-party reviews on Rednote and Douyin, which performs far better than brand-owned accounts for hospitality businesses.

How long until the first content goes live?

About two weeks from brief to first published Rednote content. Week 1: strategy and creator selection. Week 2: briefing and first publications. The full campaign typically runs over two months as additional creators publish.

Will Chinese visitors actually come to my venue?

Yes, when the campaign is run correctly. Authentic Rednote reviews from creators with relevant audiences drive measurable footfall. We track Chinese-speaking visitor lift and Rednote saves as the primary KPIs, not vanity impressions.

What's the difference between onsite and remote collaborations?

Onsite: Chinese creators physically visit your venue, experience it first-hand and publish authentic reviews. Best for footfall. Remote: content produced from briefing materials and photos. Best for awareness at scale. Most campaigns blend both.

Why Rednote over Instagram or Google?

Chinese consumers don't use Google or Instagram — they're blocked or unused in mainland China. Rednote is the dominant platform where Chinese travellers, students and expats research where to eat, stay and visit before travelling.
