The Hotel & Lodging Association of Greater Kansas City (HLAKC) is a nonprofit trade association of hotel owners and operators in a five county region. Our members range from small select-service properties, to bed & breakfasts, and large convention hotels. HLAKC also represents allied member businesses that work directly with the hotel industry to provide products and services. We are the legislative advocacy voice, as well as the source of information, and education for the hospitality industry in Greater Kansas City.
In addition to the association, HLAKC also has an Educational Foundation that empowers people from all backgrounds to secure an education and future in the hospitality industry. We do this through scholarships, professional development and partnership with area high schools, colleges and universities.
