INSPIRE21 Conference on the Future of Luxury Hotels

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Sept. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The International Luxury Hotel Association will hold its 10th annual INSPIRE21 conference at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, Santa Monica on December 2-3. Speakers from Marriott International, Hyatt, Accor, Hilton, and Carnival Corporation will look to the future as they discuss challenges, strategies, and the way forward.

Michael Grove, Chief Operating Officer, HotStats, will talk on How the Pandemic has Impacted the Operating Model as part of the hybrid model with an in-person event broadstreamed by AVMS to virtual attendees as well as online sessions.

"The pandemic hit all asset classes hard, but early data suggests that luxury hotel profit has ramped up quicker than other asset types," said Grove, "driven by, among other things, an upsurge in demand, change of business mix and wholesale changes to the cost base."

Michael Grove will take a deep dive into these changes and evaluate what they mean for the future of luxury hotel performance.
