Entry Essay: 
Hotel News Now reports on the latest news and trends in the global hotel industry, providing vital information and thought leadership for hotel decision-makers among brands, owners and operators.

The hotel industry is all about hospitality -- how and where people are traveling, major real estate deals involving landmark hotels, and how hotel leaders take care of guests on property. The Hotel News Now Daily Update is curated every day to showcase the people and places making news in our industry. This daily newsletter includes a well-thought-out mix of breaking hotel industry news, insightful features on hospitality trends, multimedia interviews including videos and podcasts, as well as analyses and opinion pieces that build thought leadership. Hotel News Now's 58,000 readers receive this newsletter in their inbox every weekday, and it's been a mainstay with HNN since its founding in 2008.

The issues of the Hotel News Now Daily Update included in this entry show both the breadth and depth of the award-winning reporting of the HNN editorial staff. The news team begins each year with a look at what hoteliers will be talking about in the year ahead; in 2024, hotel experts were pining for a return of group bookings and steady business travel demand all while trying to stay ahead of leisure demand trends. Next, as HNN's conference coverage began to ramp up, an exclusive video interview with Accor's Gilda-Perez-Alvarado led a strong newsletter that also featured a can't-miss profile of hotel veteran Eric Danziger upon his retirement. And finally, HNN dove in to what Maui's hotel recovery has looked like a year after deadly wildfires raged throughout the island, paired with another highly produced video interview from our latest industry conference.

Each Hotel News Now Daily Update gets the same amount of consistent editorial planning and strategy as the editorial staff meets every day to plan breaking news coverage and evergreen features to deliver the most vital content to the hotel industry's decision makers.
