THE WORLD'S FIRST "INSTAGRAM HOTEL"
We all, as travellers, have always captured our adventures in videos and photographs to share them with the world. We just wanted to make it a little more fun! 1888 Hotel is the place to Instagram it all!
8Hotels has worked with a local fashion blogger, Emily Fang from Little Black Book, to create a Pyrmont Insta-Walk: the ultimate 45 minute stroll around the hotel and Sydney's Darling Harbour for taking photos. Socially conscious guests have been really excited by the prospect of finding beautiful snaps to make their own Instagram feed look even better.
A ‘Selfie’ space in the lobby of 1888 has been installed where guests can take pictures and tag #1888Hotel. Their image will instantaneously appear on the screens near reception.
All guests, no matter how small their following is, have the opportunity to WIN A FREE NIGHT at the hotel just for taking a great Instagram shot with the hashtag #1888Hotel.
1888 Hotel has launched a package called the “1888 Picture Perfect Hotel Package”.
It includes:
Room to photograph – One night for two in a King Deluxe room
FoodPorn – A complimentary 1888 Antipasto plate + two glasses of wine
Shar-ability – A complimentary Internet connection
Envy-Inducing start to the day – a complimentary breakfast
Follow us on Instagram to stay up to date with everything that's happening @8hotels. Remember to #1888hotel so we can see all your arty posts. Take your best shot because we'll have them on display in our lobby.
10K FOR A FREE STAY
Instagram users with more than 10,000 followers can REDEEM A FREE NIGHT stay at the hotel by simply emailing their request to [email protected].
Their booking can be organised for an immediate stay or a voucher will be issued for redemption on future stays until December 2014.
Who took the photo? Is this the room or the lobby? Or a hostel?

That's a pretty interesting marketing strategy.

No, I'm on an RDO, or it should be RDOMEST (Rostered Day Of Means Extra Stalker Time). I wouldn't have even looked at the website if Reaper hadn't made that comment.
yep for the cost of a night's stay they get access to her 200,000+ followers via her tweets, instagram and it looks like she's doing a review for them (might be a prerequisite for everyone or just her perhaps?) Good way for them to get the word out about their hotel ... even if .001% of her followers would be in market for a hotel in Sydney
guess we'll see a lot of the BB HM's booking in now for their freebie?

oh see I'm always curious and hit the [MENTION=26670]blah[/MENTION]deblah links and then websites when it comes to hotels and things and saw that it claims to be the world's first instagram hotel and thought WTH ... just call me nosey
I have an urge to tweet them all and tell them about it. When I was doing some "research" the other day, I noticed pretty much all of them have more instagram followers then most of the Home and Away "spunks".
Edit - I feel like we are having a backwards conversation here, Crimmy, lol
yes I'm a bit of a demon for editing later and putting in a smarta$$ comment :S sowwwwwwwwwyyyyyy
