The show, held at Olympia London on 15-16 October, will bring together over 200 suppliers – from hospitality to F&B and linen and bedding – to showcase to a crowd of hotel owners and operators alongside a insight-packed seminar programme.

Suppliers taking part in this year’s event include Technogym, boutique wall covering supplier Asrin Wallprint, home fragrance experts Ashleigh & Burwood, Simba Sleep, bespoke men’s tailor Gresham Blake, and luxury watch brand BŌKEN.

The theme of this year’s event is ‘Beyond the Hustle and Bustle’, which will be reflected in the show’s design features and seminar programme, examining the role of hotels as a sanctuary for their guests and an escape from everyday life.

The seminar programme will this year take place across two stages The Hotel Business Stage and the Innovation Stage and will see leading figures discuss a number of hot topics, from recruitment to technology and sustainability.

Visitors to the show will also have the opportunity to meet industry peers in the Social Business Space, featuring networking sessions managed by leading hospitality associations and a day of content curated by Ryan Haynes of the Hoteliers Voice podcast, examining some of the most important trending topics in the sector.

The show will once again be working with leading designers and studios to bring some of the event’s features and stages to life, which this year include Design Command, Fibi Interiors, Luke Edwards Interior Design, Spacebrand and Amit Dixit Design.

The Independent Hotel Show returns to Olympia London on 15-16 October. To learn more about everything on offer at this year’s event, and to register for your complimentary trade ticket, head to independenthotelshow.co.uk.
