Problem

One of the biggest problems with Motel 6’s branding was its outdated logo.

The previous logo featured a large, blocky “6” in red font with the word

“Motel” in small letters above it. The logo was not visually appealing and

did not accurately reflect the company’s values or target audience.

Furthermore, it was not memorable and did not differentiate Motel 6

from other budget hotel chains in the market.
