The Lodging Conference is one of the events that I have always looked forward to. I have been here for more than 28 years now, pretty much since the inception of this conference. The best thing about this conference is networking in a relaxed environment and you do more deals in a relaxed environment and actually exchange ideas and the educational part of it is also absolutely phenomenal. Very well done – it continues to improve every year that I come here!
As an industry veteran, I have to say how impressed I am with The Lodging Conference this year! I've met more deal opportunities in the last two days than any conference year previously. Great job, Harry and conference team!
I come to the Lodging Conference and I’ve been coming for more than 25 years because it’s great. It’s one of the best opportunities to meet our owners and franchisees – that’s it in a nutshell.
Last week, I attended The Lodging Conference in Phoenix, which had record attendance from hotel brands, owners, and vendors that support our industry. I was able to make valuable connections with other senior-level industry executives.
Fantastic event for meeting with our clients and friends. Finding the right insurance, financing your real estate deals and purchasing the right property.
It's such a beautiful setting, contained under one roof and all the active developers are in attendance.
What a powerful conference! The Lodging Conference has been extremely insightful. Where we come home with great information, new ideas and new friends.
The Lodging Conference is always a special place to hear about the trends and to meet the people shaping our industry. I look forward to going - but I especially value what I take away.
From our team to yours. It was an absolute pleasure rubbing shoulders with the best the hospitalty industry has to offer. Thank you, The Lodging Conference, for such a wonderful week of networking and fun. Until next year!
There are many conferences throughout the year, but we always find The Lodging Conference to be the most productive.
The relaxed atmosphere of the venue coupled with the decision-makers that always attend, make for great networking opportunities throughout the property during the three days that we are there.
It was an honor to speak and share the stage at The Lodging Conference with esteemed colleagues, Rajiv Trivedi, Jared Meabon, Ben Seidel, Lydia Chen, and Dianna Vaughan where we discussed and delved into the critical alignment between owners, brands, and management companies as the hotel industry scales, touching upon topics like PIPs, fees, amenities, support, development, and contracts.
This is such a great and unique conference; from the speakers, attendees, format, location and your staff. You truly have the 'deal' conference in our industry as I think more real work gets done in the casual atmosphere you have created at The Lodging Conference than any other event. I look forward to it all year, especially the open band party on the final knight where the industry gets to rock...cool to see so many in our industry enjoy their musical side.
The Lodging Conference is hands down the best hospitality conference to attend. exp hopes to be a sponsor of the conference for years to come!

The Lodging Conference offers the chance to connect in ways that no other investment conference does - an intimate setting and informal atmosphere in which personal connection and the exchange of ideas flourish. This will be my 28th year through all the ups and downs.

I find The Lodging Conference probably one of the most unique conferences out there. It’s really the environment and the casual atmosphere - here at The Lodging Conference you go outside and you start talking deals, you start talking business and people are more honest and open to discussing deals and opportunities and that’s what makes it different than any other conference.
