State of Naperville Hospitality
The first week in April, members from the Naperville Convention and Visitors Bureau updated members of the Rotary Club of Naperville/Downtown with the “State of Naperville Hospitality.”
During the presentation, Director of Sales Becky Bekkali and Director of Marketing Mike Gronek showcased the sales and marketing efforts of Visit Naperville, funded by the local Hotel/Motel Tax, to attract visitors to meeting spaces in Naperville. Visit Naperville shows 19 hotel properties that offer a variety of spaces for trade shows, meetings, family reunions, weddings, fundraisers, etc. Of course, hotel rooms offer overnight stays for visiting family, friends and business associates and those times when home repairs require an extended stay nearby.
Plus, the city offers more than 260 dining choices that can be found at Dine Naperville.
The NCVB slide presentation also included what’s “new or coming” to Naperville.
Gronek noted businesses recently attracted to Naperville are Black Rock*, Sparrow*, CH, Kilwins*, Solaia, Pete Miller’s*, Aloha Poke Co.*, Red Arrow Tap Room*, Patel Brothers, London Skye and Pain*. (*Eateries, of sorts)
Attracting visitors to the community and keeping residents apprised of new and established businesses are important to economic development.
The hospitality industry also gives back to the community (click here for story) which was evident during the holidays and many other occasions.
Thanks for shopping, dining, banking & entertaining locally
