The Hunter Hotel Investment Conference has announced plans to move to a new venue following a 17-year partnership with the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Starting in 2026, the annual event will be held at the Signia by Hilton Atlanta.
Lee Hunter, chairman, made the announcement during the conference’s opening remarks, highlighting the event’s growth and evolution.
“Over the past three decades, the Hunter Hotel Investment Conference has established itself as a trusted platform for meaningful industry discussions and transactions,” said Hunter. “We are deeply grateful to the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, which has been an exceptional host and partner, offering a welcoming and dynamic setting for our event for nearly 20 years. Looking ahead, our move to the Signia by Hilton Atlanta allows us to grow alongside our attendees while preserving the unique, close-knit atmosphere that makes our event so special.”
Opened in 2024, the Signia hotel is located in downtown Atlanta. The property is close to key landmarks—including the Georgia World Congress Center, Mercedes-Benz Stadium and State Farm Arena. Additionally, attendees will enjoy nearby dining and entertainment options, along with new developments transforming the downtown area—most notably the $5 billion mixed-use project known as Centennial Yards, which is revitalizing the former Gulch area.
“We are delighted to welcome the Hunter Hotel Investment Conference to the beautiful Signia by Hilton Atlanta beginning next year,” said Danny Hughes, president, Americas, Hilton. “Signia is renowned for offering the world’s best meetings and events spaces, a vibrant atmosphere, exceptional amenities and personalized service tailored to each guest. As an economic catalyst and a beacon of unparalleled hospitality in the heart of downtown Atlanta, Signia is the ideal venue for Hunter. We are honored to be the new home for this important conference that is at the center of our industry’s growth and development each year.”
The 2026 conference is scheduled to take place from March 16-18. Registration details and further information will be announced later this year.
