HotelSpaces ‘17 brought together some of the sharpest minds in the hotel development, design & construction to beautiful Bonita Springs, Florida. The peer-driven content, strategic sourcing opportunities, and tropical networking made the event a hit with leading hotel brand executives and owners/operators.

“It was an action-filled conference with great opportunities to network. The format works incredibly well and the influence group team is fantastic,” said Zia Hansen, Creative Director, Core States Group.

“I loved HotelSpaces and came away with new perspectives and new vendors to look into,” said Vernon Varela, VP of Construction & Engineering at Buffalo Lodging.

Attendees valued the laidback, intimate vibe of the event. Networking activities like catamaran sailing, golfing and a poolside Catapult Design competition allowed natural, meaningful connections to be made.

“HotelSpaces was excellent. I was able to meet some new industry peers and colleagues and the intimacy of this event was really great,” said Tim Levin, Corporate Vice President of Architecture & Design at Marriott Vacations.

We’re already looking forward to next year’s retreat in Key West!
