PWI Construction at The Lodging Conference 2025
September 8, 2025
The Lodging Conference is right around the corner, and our team at PWI Construction couldn’t be more excited to be heading back to Phoenix. This annual gathering has become one of the most anticipated events in the hospitality industry — a chance for hotel owners, operators, developers, brands, and service providers to come together and talk about what’s next in lodging.
For us, it’s not just about the panels and presentations (though they’re always insightful). It’s about reconnecting with long-time friends, meeting new partners, and sharing how PWI Construction continues to bring value to the hotel and resort space. With 40 years of experience in hospitality renovations, we’re proud to be part of the conversations shaping the future of the industry.
Why This Conference Matters
The Lodging Conference is unique. It’s intimate yet impactful, bringing together decision-makers from every corner of the hotel world. Deals are made, ideas are shared, and partnerships are formed.
For general contractors like PWI Construction, it’s a perfect setting to listen to what’s keeping hotel leaders up at night — whether that’s labor shortages, evolving guest expectations, sustainability demands, or navigating property improvements in a competitive market. These conversations guide us as we continue to refine our approach to hospitality construction.

From wellness-focused design to sustainability initiatives and tech-forward guestrooms, the next era of lodging is already taking shape.
That’s why events like The Lodging Conference are so valuable. They provide a front-row seat to the trends and challenges shaping hospitality — and the opportunity to connect with the people driving those changes.
