Cvent Names Prime Conferences Locations


Meeting management platform provider Cvent on Tuesday
released its annual list of top meeting destinations and hotels. The company culls
data from its request for proposal platform to rank the cities and properties
on a blended set of criteria including number of RFPs, conversion rates, dollar
volume of awarded business and, for hotels, market share of business awarded to
the city. Cvent analyzed more than $16 billion in RFP activity that crossed its
platform from January through December 2023. 

In North America, Orlando remained in the top spot. The city,
which boasts more than 200 hotels and 120,000 guest rooms has dominated this spot
with seven wins over the last decade in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2023. Orlando is
hotly chased by No. 2 Las Vegas with more than 150,000 hotel rooms on offer.  

Nashville,
in the No. 3 spot, has boomed in terms of hotel development over the last
decade. The city now boasts more than 85,000 hotel rooms serving meeting venues
like Music City Center and Gaylord Opryland Convention Center. The city is also
home to four of the five top meetings hotels sourced in the Cvent platform in
2023. The Grand Hyatt Nashville at No. 1, Omni Nashville Hotel at No. 2, JW
Marriott Nashville at No. 4, and the Renaissance Nashville Hotel at No. 5. 

Dallas,
which placed fourth among cities in Cvent’s North America rankings, was the biggest
mover in the top 10. The city placed seventh last year but jumped three spots in
the 2024 list. The city counts more than 77,000 hotel rooms.  

Rounding
out the top 10 list were San Diego at No. 5, Chicago at No. 6, Atlanta at No.
7, Denver at No. 8 (up from No. 10 in 2023), Phoenix at No. 9 and Austin, Tex. at
No. 10. Austin also boasted the third- and sixth-place meeting hotels on Cvent’s
North America top hotels list, the JW Marriott Austin and the Fairmont Austin,
respectively.  

Cvent
ranked meeting hotels and destinations in global regions as well as North
America. The top 10 destinations in each region are listed below.
