Corinthia Hotels proudly announces its partnership with RoundShield and Kervis SGR to operate a world-class, luxury resort in Lake Como. The 58-key Corinthia Lake Como will be built adjacent to the grounds of Italy’s second-oldest golf course in the alpine village of Menaggio. Nestled in the foothills of the Pre-Alps, the development will complement the historic course with a beach club on the lake’s western shore, creating a rare, fully integrated resort in this iconic yet supply-constrained destination.

Events in 2026 will be defined by intentionality. AI is becoming operational, trust is harder to earn, and outcomes matter more than ever. At the same time, audiences are more selective, choosing experiences that feel intentional, relevant, and worth their time.

Last week in Linz, the ÖHV Congress once again brought together Austria’s hospitality industry. This year, the focus was clear: artificial intelligence, simplification, and the future of the sector. But between the keynote speeches and the conversations during coffee breaks, a very real tension became visible.

Since opening its first property in 2006, Roomzzz has grown into eleven aparthotels across eight UK cities, each designed to offer a home-from-home environment. Built around a strong sense of belonging for guests, staff, and local charities, the brand is grounded in a simple idea: people should feel like they belong, just like in a family.

There was a time when continuity in hospitality lived in people.

We’re all weathering the same storm, but too many organizations are doing it in boats with missing oars or worse, with crews rowing at double speed just to stay afloat. The “run lean” mantra has become a badge of honor in many industries, especially hospitality and residential management. Leaders praise efficiency, agility, and cost control. But when “lean” crosses into “bare bones,” the quiet costs start adding up.

Conversion is one of the most important drivers of hotel performance, yet also one of the least understood. In the hotel context, conversion rate reflects the share of potential guests who move from browsing to actually completing a reservation. Although conversion matters across all channels, it is particularly critical for direct bookings on a hotel’s own website, where the property has the greatest control over the guest journey and the greatest ability to influence outcomes through pricing, messaging and booking conditions.

AI agents are moving from novelty to necessity. What began as simple automation and chat-based assistants is evolving into systems that observe their environment, decide what to do next and take action across real workflows. These agents execute jobs, call tools, update systems and influence decisions that once required human judgment.
