Membership

As a smaller hotel, I appreciate the network of information the Hotel Council provides. Not only are the seminars filled with relevant topics, but the members are always willing to share ideas and experiences.

The Hotel Council truly represents and supports all its members and does not shy away from tackling tough issues. Our partnership with the Hotel Council has opened doors for so many of us and connected me personally to many other professionals and industry leaders.

We became a member of The Hotel Council of San Francisco in September of 2018 and attended the Human Resources Seminar in October. We learned about several compliance rules from  top-notch speakers that are influential during the entire employee journey. Sparkwork Software automates these compliance rules inside organizations so that these risks can be avoided. The attendees of the seminar were in the right spirit to network, help and learn from each other! We are grateful to be a part of the Hotel Council.

The Economic Forecasting Seminar is a great event as it brings together experts on several different relevant topics in one place. I look forward to this event each year knowing it will arm me and my team with helpful information that we need to plan for the next year and stay tuned in to what is impacting all hotels in the market.

I was awarded a Hotel Council scholarship and given the opportunity to speak at the Annual Charity Golf Tournament. This exposed me to the hospitality community and developed my professional network. I’m forever grateful to the Hotel Council for helping students transform their dreams into reality.

There’s strength in numbers and that sums up exactly why the Hotel Council of San Francisco is such an asset to every hotel. Whether it’s tracking policies, advocating for our employees, or defending our industry’s interests – we’re much more effective together than we could ever be alone.

Our partnership with the Hotel Council has enabled our students to network with and learn from successful leaders in the hotel industry. In fact, they were instrumental in the successful launch our first Department of Hospitality Management Women in Leadership Summit at USF, which highlighted the great opportunities that exist in the industry.
