The Greater New Orleans Hotel and Lodging Association and its Hospitality Education Foundation represent the Greater New Orleans Area hotel industry and businesses that help service hotels. Now more than ever, we share a message of hope.
Our team members want to return to work, and we are doing everything we can to ensure they can get back to the careers they love.
The hotel industry is a critical component of the New Orleans economy. Hotels are catalysts for opportunity, competitive wages for employees as well as increased city revenue and commercial growth for area businesses.
Offering career opportunities to people from all walks of life, hotels provide upward mobility, allowing employees to access family-supporting career pathways within one month to one year on the job.
Hotel and lodging businesses in New Orleans have been a mainstay for decades, supporting and investing in the community through tax revenue, capital investment, civic leadership and charitable contributions and sponsorships.
THERE’S A CAREER FOR EVERYONE
In a recent study, 100 percent of area hotels reported that
they provide health benefits for their full-time workers.

As a critical component of New Orleans’ economy, we know that hotels are catalysts for increased tax revenue, opportunity and careers for employees and commercial growth of area business large and small. On top of competitive wages, the hotel industry boasts a host of other benefits for full-time employees – but not everyone recognizes that. Stories are powerful.
Good stories about what's happening on the ground in the industry help us advocate for supportive policies and raise overall awareness of the benefits of a career in the hotel industry.
