2025 is going to be big.
More events. More attendees. More cities. And definitely more pressure to make everything run smoothly—especially when it comes to hotels.
Whether you’re planning conferences, festivals, weddings, or group retreats, booking group travel is one of those things that can be simple… but usually isn’t.
Spreadsheets, email chains, and missed cut-off dates? That era is over.
Here’s what you actually need to know to win the group travel game in 2025—and how to make your hotel booking process a whole lot smarter.
You know what’s awkward? Trying to negotiate a better hotel rate over email, copying and pasting your numbers into Excel, and hoping your “just checking in” message doesn’t get ignored.
You know what’s worse? Accepting the first offer and realizing later you could’ve saved thousands.
Negotiating doesn’t have to be uncomfortable—or complicated. You just need the right tools and the right approach.
