American Hotel & Lodging Association

Monday is National Hotel Employee Day, which the American Hotel & Lodging Association established in 2022 to thank hotel employees for their hard work and dedication and recognize the integral role they play in our nation’s travel, tourism and hotel industries. At Red Roof, hotel employees across more than 700 locations nationwide are committed to our HABITS, or core values: hospitality, adaptability, belonging, impact, trust and success. Their dedication ensures that we can all deliver on Red Roof’s vision to provide the best experience and value in the lodging industry for our guests, owners, team members, partners and communities. We appreciate our team members’ service every day, and this weekend, we invite you to join us in celebrating their hard work while you travel. Whether visiting a Red Roof or any hotel, make sure to take a moment to thank one of the 2.1 million employees who work in America's hotel industry today. #HotelEmployeeDay #ThankYou
