Estonia raises national guest satisfaction by turning guest reviews into actionable insights with Reviewpro Reputation
National tourism strategy adopts Global Review Index™ (GRI) as a key performance indicator, driving measurable improvements across accommodations, food services, and attractions.
21 August 2025

BARCELONA, Spain – Shiji, the global leader in hospitality technology, today announced that Visit Estonia has successfully improved national guest satisfaction by leveraging Reviewpro Reputation to unify feedback from more than 170 online review sources.

As one of the first countries to adopt the Global Review Index™ (GRI) as a national tourism KPI, Estonia raised its GRI from 89.3 in 2022 to 89.8 in 2024, surpassing its annual satisfaction growth target. The nationwide initiative consolidated reviews from 254 accommodations, 357 restaurants, 76 museums, and 35 attractions, turning fragmented guest feedback into actionable insights for destination management organizations (DMOs) and policymakers.

Key Results (2022–2024):

Real-Time Insights, Faster Action

Reviewpro Reputation aggregates guest reviews from over 170 sources, applying automated analysis to identify trends, recurring issues, and positive highlights. This allowed national policymakers and local operators to make faster, evidence-based decisions — ranging from staff training to selecting high-performing businesses for marketing campaigns.

Implementing Reviewpro Reputation has changed how we support tourism in Estonia, from national decisions to local trainings. We now base development choices on real-time insights, and that’s raised satisfaction, efficiency, and visibility across the country. Tatjana Koor, Product Specialist, Visit Estonia

Next Step: Smarter Sentiment Analysis

In 2025, Estonia will roll out semantic analysis tools via Reviewpro Reputation, giving regional DMOs deeper insight into guest sentiment to further refine training and development programs.

With measurable gains in guest satisfaction and more agile destination management, Estonia’s success sets a clear example of how data-driven strategies can elevate national tourism via a commitment to delivering exceptional experiences for every traveler.
