Boutique hospitality is a movement that is paving the way for an immersive, human-centered, and reimagined era of the boutique lifestyle. This movement would not exist without leaders who embody the spirit of boutique and believe in boldly advancing the industry’s cultural impact and category innovation.

BLLA is a trailblazer in the hospitality industry. Their dedication to promoting boutique hotels aligns perfectly with our mission to support those dedicated to excellence and individuality. Lockton is thrilled to partner with BLLA and share a common commitment to independence and the belief that true innovation comes from those who are not afraid to challenge the status quo. Andrew Azzarello, Business Insurance and Risk Advisor at Lockton
