Most members of the eHotelier team are longtime Skål members who have benefited throughout their hospitality careers from the network of contacts made through Skål. Here's more about the organisation and why there are benefits to membership.

The Skal club of New York celebrates its 75th anniversary on the eve on the Skål World Congress. Over 600 members, guests and their families congregated at the famous New Yorker Hotel on 8th Avenue bring cheer and friendship from all corners of the world.

By Anne Edwards, Editor in Chief, ehotelier: It is easy to forget, in the frenetic pace of the hospitality industry, the need to create opportunities to talk with other industry professionals. Show me a successful hotelier and somewhere down the line you’ll find a mentor or friend who helped clear the pathway to that business success.
