The Hotel Association of Canada (HAC) is the exclusive national organization representing corporate hotel companies, ownership groups, provincial hotel associations, city hotel associations, and independent hotels. We drive advocacy success on targeted issues that matter most to the hotel industry and deliver member value and engagement through powerful industry programs and services designed to strengthen the hotel industry across Canada.

A Unified Approach

City Hotel Associations

MEMBERSHIP

City Hotel Associations are key players in the Canadian lodging industry and your engagement with HAC facilitates strong alignment between the industry’s city, provincial and national associations. Our combined voices strengthen the industry.

 

City Hotel Association members will benefit from:

  • Influence at highest levels of Government;
  • A united industry;
  • Better national legislation;
  • Strong industry reputation;
  • Access to leader tables;
  • Exclusive access to industry research, reports, and surveys; and
  • Insight on emerging industry trends.

 

A City Hotel Association wishing to join HAC must also be supporting its Provincial Hotel Association.

Lend Your Voice

Property-Level Membership

BRANDED PROPERTIES | INDEPENDENT PROPERTIES 

Owners are directly impacted by the key issues HAC address at the national level. The new HAC Property-Level Membership facilitates engagement with branded and independent hotels while showcasing the united voice of Canada’s industry via representation from all lodging segments.

 

As members of HAC, Properties can expect to benefit from:

  • A united industry;
  • Proactive, national-scale advocacy on high-profile issues;
  • Insight on emerging industry trends;
  • Opportunities to shape HAC offerings; and
  • Exclusive access to industry research, reports, and surveys.

 

Branded Properties can join HAC via their Franchise License Agreements, as issued by their Corporate Brand Office. Non-branded, or Independently Owned/Operated Properties, can join HAC by contacting their Provincial Hotel Association.

 

Please note that membership with HAC does not replace membership in your Provincial association. Provincial associations will continue to actively advocate for favourable legislation in your Province and will partner with the Hotel Association of Canada on issues of national scope. Your continued support of your provincial association is vital to our combined success.
