The Boutique Hotel Investment Conference
3 June 2026
The Times Center
West 41st Street
United States - New York, NY 10036
The Boutique Hotel Investment Conference by BLLA is the premier annual gathering where vision meets capital in the world of independent boutique and luxury hotels. Hosted in New York City by the Boutique Lifestyle Leaders Association, the event brings together owners, developers, investors, lenders and advisors who are shaping the next chapter of boutique hospitality. Across a focused day of keynotes, panels and networking, the conference explores market trends, creative capital strategies and real deal opportunities, all curated through a boutique lens. It is the place where boutique hoteliers and investment leaders connect, share intelligence, and forge the partnerships that drive distinctive, design-led hotels and lifestyle concepts forward.
This BLLA gathering has become a key date on the calendar for serious boutique hotel owners, investors, developers, and capital partners. And in 2026, we're raising the bar even higher.
Richard Born (Owner, BD Hotels) and Daniel Del Olmo (President & Co-CEO, Sage Hospitality) are among the industry leaders anchoring what will be our strongest program yet — designed to address investment strategy, market shifts, and the future of independent hospitality with real depth.
What truly defines this conference is the network — a highly engaged, forward-moving group of leaders who actively shape the boutique landscape. It's an environment where introductions turn into partnerships, insights become action, and meaningful relationships are built.
Early access pricing is now available, and we encourage you to secure your seat soon. Last year's conference sold out weeks in advance, and we expect demand to exceed capacity again.
We look forward to welcoming you to a room of decision-makers, deal-makers, and the visionaries shaping what's next for boutique hospitality.
