Last week, Eventprofslive members gathered for an exclusive dinner at the iconic Hispania restaurant in central London. This special evening, hosted in collaboration with Destinations Unlimited, Great Hotels of the World, and Ilunion Hotels, was an opportunity for corporate event managers to connect, enjoy exquisite Spanish cuisine, and discover more about a truly unique hotel brand making waves in the hospitality industry.
One of the highlights of the evening was hearing from Ilunion Hotels, the hotel division of the ONCE Social Group (Spanish National Organisation of the Blind). Ilunion Hotels stands out in the global hospitality landscape by championing sustainable, responsible, inclusive, and accessible tourism. With a dedicated team of 1,700 people—41% of whom have a disability—Ilunion Hotels operates with a mission to build a better world for everyone.
Their motto, “where sleeping is waking up,” is more than just a slogan; it reflects the extraordinary experience offered at their 31 properties across Spain. Every Ilunion hotel has earned universal accessibility certification (UNE 170001-2) and the Qsostenible seal, ensuring that sustainability and inclusivity are at the core of their operations. Their commitment to making travel accessible extends to being both pet-friendly and Proud Certified, guaranteeing a welcoming stay for all guests.

Over a sumptuous Spanish feast at Hispania, our members had the chance to engage in meaningful discussions about career development, resilience, and life in the fast-paced world of corporate events. The setting provided the perfect backdrop for exchanging insights, sharing experiences, and forging new industry connections. The menu was amazing (Basque cheesecake anyone?!)
