THE INDEPENDENT HOTEL SHOW - A MAJOR OPPORTUNITY TO DO BUSINESS WITH EUROPE’S LUXURY, BOUTIQUE & INDEPENDENT HOTEL SECTOR
Hotels face complex challenges but consumer demand is at an all-time-high. The modern guest is highly connected, well-travelled, business driven and often seeking authenticity. This means that in order to run a world-class hotel successfully, hoteliers must embrace change and constantly seek to invest in the latest solutions to deliver the ultimate guest experiences, whilst simultaneously streamlining and maintaining efficiency and profitability.
The Independent Hotel Show unites high quality suppliers with forward thinking hoteliers who share a common vision. This vision is to support the development and successful operation of hotel businesses today and in the future.
WHO SHOULD EXHIBIT?
A curated collection of high quality product and service providers ranging from design and décor, guest facing and back of house technology, leisure and wellness, hotel products and amenities, marketing, housekeeping, business services… and more.
A PLATFORM FOR BUSINESS, LEARNING AND NETWORKING
A curated exhibition of 150 leading suppliers to the hotel and accommodation industry, a dedicated seminar programme and multiple networking opportunities.
With Q&A discussions and head-to-head interviews with the industry’s leading experts, the show’s goal is to facilitate education, connections, networking, inspiration and new business opportunities.
“Every person you meet at the Independent Hotel Show can be a potential partner, maybe not right that instant, but perhaps someday in the future - Your network is only one handshake away!”

WHY NOW?
The Amsterdam show enters the market in a period of strong industry growth. European hotel transaction volume reached €20.9 billion in 2017, an 11% increase from 2016 surpassing what had already been a record level year in 20151.
The sector is robust, growing, developing, and in line with ever increasing consumer and business demand for better experiences in travel and hotels, shows no sign of slowing.
Last year, Amsterdam retained top spot as the most attractive European city for investment2. It is a visionary and accessible European centre for innovation with growing hotel, business and financial sectors. With exciting domestic and international brands such as Zoku, Soho House, Sir Hotels, Hoxton, W, Hotel de Hallen and The Student Hotel choosing to call the city their home, the market is ripe with development. And with a vigorous tourism industry bringing revenue for refurbishment and development; its unique culture makes it the perfect destination to bring the Independent Hotel Show’s support to our hotelier community in Europe.
Occupancy in Amsterdam is forecast at 82% in 2018 and the demand is growing. RevPAR is expected to be up 11% by 20193 and there are 10.000 rooms under development in the city centre alone4.
With this growth and expansion the need exists for hotel owners and operators to find the best and most effective solutions. This creates incredible opportunities for suppliers to expand into this growing market and become the brand of choice.
With a target audience of the most ambitious, entrepreneurial and committed hoteliers, the Independent Hotel Show provides a unique platform for suppliers to actively sell, promote and market their business.
Whilst our first edition will have a strong Benelux focus, hoteliers from Germany and key influencers from wider European hotel hotspots will be invited to benefit from the opportunities the show presents.
