Dear IH&RA member and Hospitality Leader,
 
I am Pleased that you did consult our Web site and I do welcome you to discover the World of Hospitality that we will offer you.

We are your voice, the voice of the Hospitality Industry and we do represent our Hotels Association, Hotels Chain local and International, Independents Hotels as well as Restaurants association and Chains, education and hotels, tourism school and affiliates and partners, our members represent more than 200,000 Hotels and 6 millions restaurants Worldwide.
 
This year with our move to Geneva, we are looking toward the Future, this is the “new” IH&RA looking toward the new generation of our members in 5 continents. We are ready to help and assist you but we need to know “what we can do for you to assist you in your business” don’t wait and say what are you going to provide me. Instead you have to tell us what are your needs and how we can help you better to take full advantages of your membership.
 
This is very important, you did join IH&RA don’t be a sleeping member, be active, interact with us on various projects, assist at our Nace and Chain leaders meeting as well as the Board. Be present at our Annual Assembly. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE DIFFERENCE.
