Hotel Influencers 100

The Hotel Influencers 100 celebrates the hotel leaders, innovators and changemakers shaping the future of hospitality. The list recognises the general managers, entrepreneurs, creatives and industry professionals who set trends, drive innovation and inspire progress across the hotel sector.

The concept was developed by HBMEO to give greater visibility to the people behind the industry: those who make hotels more relevant, creative, sustainable and connected. By bringing together an independent jury, industry partners and a strong hospitality network, Hotel Influencers 100 creates a platform for recognition, inspiration and dialogue within the hotel community.

The first edition of the Hotel Influencers 100 was launched and unveiled during the Independent Hotel Show Amsterdam, in collaboration with Hotelvak and the Independent Hotel Show. The initiative invited the industry to nominate the leaders who inspire, innovate and lead the way, with the final list presented as a celebration of talent and influence within hospitality.
