Independent Hotel Show opens registration for 2025

Registration is now open for Independent Hotel Show 2025, in partnership with James Hallam, returning to Olympia London on 6–7 October. The Independent Hotel Show is the UK’s only trade show dedicated entirely to the boutique, independent and luxury hotel sector.  

Each year, Independent Hotel Show welcomes thousands of hoteliers, interior designers, and hospitality decision-makers for two days of meaningful connection, expert insight and high-quality product sourcing. For anyone invested in the future of exceptional guest experiences, it’s an essential date in the calendar. 

This year’s theme, Redefining Luxury, will explore how independent hospitality is responding to shifting guest expectations. From personalised service and sustainable choices to timeless design and emotional resonance, the event will spotlight how hoteliers are reimagining luxury for tomorrow’s travellers. 

The 2025 edition of the show will feature a compelling programme of live content across three stages: 

The Hotel Business Stage, in partnership with eviivo, will address operational challenges and strategic growth. The Innovation Stage will shine a light on emerging technologies and evolving guest behaviours. 

Meanwhile, the Social Business Space, designed by Ches & Co, will give hoteliers a chance to engage in focused, peer-led conversations and interactive workshops designed to support hospitality leaders with practical solutions to implement in their business.  

Guests visiting the show will have the opportunity to explore a curated showcase of over 200 leading suppliers, from tech and linen to furniture, amenities, wellness and in-room experiences, all curated to meet the specific needs of independent hotels.

Whether hoteliers are planning a refurbishment, fine-tuning operations or looking for inspiration, the show provides a one-stop destination for tailored solutions and fresh ideas. 

Also returning for 2025, the Independent Hotel Show Awards, in partnership with Preferred Hotels & Resorts, will celebrate the individuals and teams shaping the future of the sector. The awards recognise the creativity, resilience and spirit that make independent hospitality such a vital and vibrant part of the industry, through categories including Independent Hotel of the Year, Hotel Design of the Year, Hotel Rising Star, and an Outstanding Contribution award announced on the day of the event.  

With its focus on quality, community and forward-looking content, Independent Hotel Show 2025 promises to be an unmissable experience for anyone shaping the guest journey, whether through design, technology, service or strategy. 

Independent Hotel Show takes place on 6-7 October at Olympia London. To secure your complimentary trade ticket and learn more about what’s in store at this year’s event, visit independenthotelshow.co.uk
