About Hotel Leaders Network

The Hotel Leaders Network (HLN) is an exclusive network platform for General Managers, Hotel Managers, CEO’s and Regional Directors working in the hotel industry.

Once a year the HLN will organize a refreshing event on an inviting location. Here, inspiring guest speakers and presentations will enlighten you with the latest trends, innovations and developments within the (inter)national hotel industry.
