Thanks! Your logos are clearly the big winners. Do you have ideas of where we could put the Trademark "TM" in these top designs?

Thank you -- Our CEO is asking to see this as a rectangle. (wider vs. taller) so Independent can be more prominent.

This is MY favorite, but our partner hotels felt like the font was too small. I think this entire logo is just a little smaller than some of the others that have been uploaded. Can you upload it a little larger? (Sorry, i know it's annoying feedback, but it helps some people compare more directly.) If it's possible to bump up font sizes, great, but I imagine it would throw off the balance.

Our Hotels really liked this design. Can you try HOTEL with a little wider font? We really like this, but would like to see an alternative for HOTEL.

I love both the logos you presented. (ranked 1 and 3 currently) Do you have any ideas for how to work in something that would give it a nod to a hotel/hospitality. My thoughts with this one is that it's not far off from a headboard. Or an element where it was given "legs" to give it the look of a simple bed (kind like Hotel Tonight Logo).
LIke I said, I love what you've done so far, and would be satisfied with either of these as our final seal... but curious if there's a way to enhance the sense of hospitality.

While we’re not going with the initials, I really like the format of these. Maybe instead of the letters in the black box, some interesting symbol of either hospitality or independence.

I think the word we want to emphasize is Independent, instead of certified.
We’re trying to show that it’s without the chain, so I’m not sure the chain I works. I like the typography though!

We’re not going for the acronym.
