BLLA Hotel Membership Options

Membership options to help your boutique hotel or collection thrive.

We invite you to explore various hotel membership options that best suit your needs. They are grouped into two major categories:

Individual Properties

These membership offerings are per-property. This means that the benefits listed are for one hotel property only. If you work for the hotel corporate office (i.e COO, Vice President, Owner, etc) please sign up as a “Hotel Corporate Member.”

Hotels Coming Soon

This membership offering is for a hotel that are is development (can be at any stage), just must have a statement from the owner saying that they plan on building an independent boutique hotel.

Collections, Groups, Corporate Offices

These membership offerings are for hotel collections, groups or corporate offices. This means that the benefits are for the collection/group/office as a whole and the benefits do not apply to the individual properties. Please also note if you or your firm is a developer or investor (even if you are also a management firm), you will need to sign up through the vendor membership program.
