Questions and answers

Yes – Our event is free of charge for hoteliers. You are very welcome.

Just come as you are. It’s a relaxed event, not a business meeting.

Yes, for hoteliers! Thanks to our great partners. If you are a consultant, you can buy a special ticket.

In fact, you should! But each person has to register individually so that we know how many people we can expect.

If you can’t come, please send a short e-mail to: info@hospitalityindustry.club. We always order food and drinks based on registrations, and it would be a shame if there were a lot left over.
