The Stars Have Shined: Celebrating Ohio’s Hospitality Standouts

What a season of celebration! The 2026 Regional Stars of the Industry Luncheons brought hospitality professionals together across Dayton, Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati to recognize the incredible people who go above and beyond for Ohio’s lodging industry.

From celebrating this year’s nominees to reconnecting with colleagues and cheering on coworkers, each luncheon was a great reminder of the people who make our industry so special. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make these events such a fun and meaningful celebration.

But the celebration isn’t over just yet! Our Regional Stars will now move on to the next round, where they’ll compete for statewide titles at the 2026 OHLA Annual Conference & Gala. We can’t wait to see who takes home the top honor.

Congratulations to all of our 2026 Regional Stars, and thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s luncheons unforgettable!
