• Next week sees the hosting of the 2018 Master Innholders General Managers' Conference, which is taking place at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London on 15 and 16 January.
The 25th annual staging of the event, which this year is subtitled 'The Spirit of the Time' sees a packed programme which covers topics including innovation, F&B, branding, hotel design, consumer behaviour, mindfulness, legislation and more.
As well as industry leaders from the hotel sector, the agenda also includes contributions from branding consultant Tim Watson, motivational speaker Nigel Risner and Rio 2016 Olympic hockey gold medallist Crista Cullen. She uses the sporting environment to provide valuable insights into the fundamental requirements of a performance culture. Her focus is on the core principles of effective teamwork, leadership and motivation required to achieve success in sport and business alike.

• Don't forget that the deadline for entering the 2018 Boutique Hotel Guest Experience Awards (The BoHos) is next Friday, January 19th. We've been delighted with the response to date and have already received entries from an incredible 30 different countries! The BoHos are well on their way to becoming an established highlight in the industry calendar!
If you are thinking of entering but are concerned that you don't have time, don't despair - the registration and entry process only takes a few minutes via a simple online form.
The BoHos reward the boutique, lifestyle and hybrid hotels who provide the very best in guest experiences. The BoHos are unique in that the winners are decided, not by judges, but by the hotels' guests, using a combination of aggregated verified guest feedback from review sites and booking engines worldwide, and direct guest feedback via questionnaires. Each have a 50 per cent weighting in a hotel's overall score to give a true picture of the guest experience provided.
Once entries for the 2018 awards have been finalised, a three-month period of data collection will commence, where each property's verified online reviews and direct feedback from guests will be collected and handed over to impartial academics at Glion Institute of Higher Education, who will then independently collate, assess and analyse the data, and decide upon the results.
There is no cost to enter the BoHos so don't miss the opportunity to get your property's name up in lights!
The 2018 BoHos will be presented at a gala ceremony in London on May 21, on the first evening of the 2018 Boutique and Lifestyle Hotel Summit. Click here to enter the awards and here to buy tickets for the Summit and the BoHos ceremony.
