Mission
THE MISSION OF THE GREATER PHILADELPHIA HOTEL ASSOCIATION (GPHA) IS TO FOSTER INCREASED PROFITABILITY IN MEMBER HOTELS THROUGH INCREASED ROOM NIGHTS, HIGHER AVERAGE DAILY RATE, AND HIGHER REVENUE PER AVAILABLE ROOM (REVPAR).
Program accomplishments
- In 2024, the Greater Philadelphia Hotel Association continued to serve as a strong advocate for the city's hotel industry. We worked closely with the Philadelphia Commerce Department to amend the Fair Work Week Law and developed a contingency plan in anticipation of a potential public transit strike, which was ultimately resolved just before the planned work stoppage. We also established a productive working relationship with Philadelphia's new Mayor and proudly honored her at our annual awards luncheon. Looking ahead, we supported the PHLCVB in securing the 2026 PCMA Convention and began preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, during which Philadelphia will host six matches in June and July.
