Hospitality Design - December 2023 - 6
from the editor
year in review
Welcome to the last HD issue of 2023.
This year has fl own by! I want to thank you, our
readers and advertisers, for your support through
2023, helping us continue to do what we love: build
and celebrate the hospitality design community.
As we always do in December, we take both a
look back at 2023 and a look forward of what will
continue to impact us in the new year by culling
more than 50 of the top hotel openings and 10
trends of 2023.
Curating the Best of 2023 hotels was no easy
feat, considering more than 2,000 hotels opened
globally in the last year. The group we assembled
(broken up by region) shows the breadth of talent
this industry has to off er-a mix of new builds and transformations, legacy and
recently launched brands, mainstays and independents.
Plus, we have identifi ed 10 trends you should be paying att ention to. Some will
come as no surprise-holistic wellbeing, eco-conscious design-but have evolved
even further with new concepts pushing the status quo. Others, like retro F&B
outlets (think vinyl record lounges and diners) and immersive experiences and
exhibitions are having their moment. The one thing they all have in common is
personalized, memorable experiences that come to life through thoughtful design.
It was so great to see so many of you at BDNY last month (we had recordbreaking
att endance!). The buzz of the show, Platinum Circle (see the honorees on
page 43), and the Gold Key Awards was infectious. We plan to do that again April
30th-May 2nd during HD Expo + Conference at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. New
this year: We are bringing our annual HD Awards celebration to the show. We hope
you submit your projects and products at hospitalitydesignawards.com by February
9th. We would love to celebrate with you in Vegas.
In the meantime, A+D friends, please use code STACY24 for a free expo pass
at hdexpo.com. Until then, we wish you and your loved ones a wonderful holiday
season and a happy new year. Cheers to an amazing 2024!
