BOND Five Star EMEA

Networking with EMEA's Leading Luxury Hotel Designers
March 11-14, 2027
Sintra, Portugal
1-on-1 meetings and networking with EMEA's top luxury hotel designers
BOND Five Star EMEA is not like any other hotel design event because of who you’ll meet here and the exclusive, top-end hospitality projects they’re responsible for.
Chris Webb, VP Architecture and Design, HILTON Worldwide summed it up nicely:
“Working at the highest end of the luxury market, this has been the only event I’ve found that’s focused on that”
Taking the form of an exclusive annual business retreat, it gives EMEA’s most in-demand, top-end luxury hotel designers a chance to connect with the suppliers they need.
Getting away from the office gives you focused time and space get to know each other properly – and that’s where the most meaningful, long-term business happens. Always.
BOND Five Star EMEA sells out quicker every year. If you believe EMEA’s true top-end hotel project influencers need to see your products, we suggest you get in touch:
GET IN TOUCH
So much more than a trade show
You know who’s going to be here before you arrive and you will have a guaranteed number of 1-on-1 meetings with the hotel designers of your choice. And that’s just the start:

> 18 pre-arranged 1:1 meetings
