Stop flyers, switch to StyQR!
We’ve all heard about that shelf full of flyers for touring the region, discovering a new museum or eating in a gourmet restaurant. What if you freed up some space and offered all this in one digital booklet ?
1. Why not offer flyers anymore
Have you ever found a flyer folded into 48 pieces in your pocket after doing the laundry ? We did, we saw it, thought “why not” and kept it in our pocket for a long time. All to forget and never go to see the place he was selling.
Also think about the environmental impact of all this printing. The ink, the paper… all to end up in the bin most of the time.
So to put an end to this waste and offer communication that really works, switch to a digital booklet!
2. The advantages of StyQR
With StyQR, all the information you want to communicate to your customers is in one application. With just a few clicks, your customer can find out where to eat, where to walk and which museum to visit.
You can also tell them about promotions and partnerships negotiated for them with certain companies. So, rather than showing up with a flyer that they might lose, they’ll simply pull up their app and present the code.
For them it’s simpler, more up to date and more personal. Indeed, you will be able to offer them personalised recommendations according to their tastes and desires. For example, you won’t have to offer them a family excursion if they are travelling as a couple, or a great promotion for a duo massage if they are a single person.
So, do you want to move into the digital age and offer a complete experience to your customers?
Seasonal rentals and hotels: who wins the duel?
The figures for holiday bookings in France are in. We now know whether the French prefer holiday rentals or hotels. Any ideas before you read on?
1. A preference for seasonal rentals
Once again this year, the French are choosing to rent hotels! According to Europ Assistance: “Only 29% of French holidaymakers will sleep in a hotel during their stay this summer, compared to 46% on average for Europeans”.
And this, despite the definite increase in rental prices! +9.4% for houses in the mountains, +7.6% in the countryside and +7.2% for the seaside.
Among the most popular regions, we find, not surprisingly, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur (excluding the coast), the region that is progressing the most with +49%, followed by the Côte d’Azur (+37.5%) and Corsica (+26%) (in comparison with 2019).
2. Is it really a dislike of hotels?
According to the agency, the French do not shun hotels, but are very attached to holiday rentals.
The main explanation would come from the impressive choice of rentals offered. Indeed, in France, there are about four million second homes. That’s a lot of possibilities!
More and more people want to feel at home, in a cocoon with a garden, rather than being constrained by hotel hours. If you are going to travel in your own country, you might as well do it in a house!
What do you think? When you go on holiday, where do you choose to sleep?

Montpellier: our good addresses
StyQR moved to Montpellier a few years ago. We fell in love with this sunny city and its surroundings! So we’ll show you around.
1. Where to sleep?
Montpellier is a city full of hotels and Airbnb. Indeed, it is an attractive city full of sunshine, which makes it quite a touristy city.
So here are our top 3 hotels for a great stay:
- The Courtyard Montpellier for a luxurious stay
- The Grand Hôtel du Midi for a historic stay
- Le Domaine de Verchant & Spa for a relaxing and authentic stay
2. Where to eat?
Montpellier is full of good restaurants and coffeeshops to have a good time.
Among the coffeeshops we love are Amazone Coffee, Ma Première Cantine and Bonobo Montpellier.
For those who want a starred meal, we highly recommend: La Réserve Rimbaud. And finally, to eat more simply, you can go to a Sunday under the fig tree or the Carré Mer if you want to eat with your feet in the sand.
3. What to visit in Montpellier?
Start your tour of the city at the Place de la Comédie and the esplanade Charles de Gaulle, then take a look at the Arc de Triomphe and the Jardin des plantes.
