Last month #WanderlustMadrid2017 was held in Madrid, in the PuertalSol restaurant by Chicote, a meeting created by tourism experts which are: the hotel factory, Borbalán and Passion & Gastronomy; counting at all time with the support of Caixabank.

Wanderlust means passion for traveling, and it is that passion that, as tourism professionals, we want to convey to the rest of the people. For this reason, the main objective of this event was to create a new space for relationships, proposals and projects among professionals, owners and managers of the tourism sector, doing networking, tasting exclusive dishes and having fun at all times.

Such was the impact that more than 250 guests attended to the event. Among them, highlight representatives of different hotel chains, investment groups and professionals in the sector.

Wanderlust had as a main theme the change from the old hotel to the new one. The guests began to live the experience when entering what would be a Hotel of the 1920s where they had to check in and try an edible room key to enter and live the Wanderlust world. As one entered into the event, they started to discover the new trends that have changed the hotel sector in the last years: adults only, wellness, lifestyle… They all had their own space within the event, ready to captivate everyone.

The fun was present throughout the night. Our guests tasted different types of foods while a group of actors, dancers and musicians enlivened the evening. At 11 pm and in the company of Alberto Chicote, everyone ate the grapes to celebrate the beginning of a new year, a year with great prospects for the future of the entire tourism sector. And to continue the night, DJ Ed Junquera’s music took over as the guests continued enjoying the evening and making new industry contacts during the event.

The great International Tourism Fair is over and now it’s time to recap all that the hotel factory has experienced. Events, meetings, visits and negotiations that lead us to build new ideas and concepts for our clients.

To finish, we would like to thank all the companies that have made this event possible: Caixabank, Borbalán, Passion & Gastronomy and the whole team of the hotel factory. Without forgetting at any time the collaboration of BookStyle, Refinería Web, Turiscar, International Hospitality Projects, Aldesa and Maximice Events groups, the compagnie des desserts and dron company.

We hope to share this wonderful experience again and see all of you at the next Wanderlust!!
