Ten Predictions for the Hospitality Industry in 2026 and Beyond: Insights from Cayuga Hospitality Consultants' Annual Conference 2025 - Food & Beverage Magazine

Artificial intelligence is no longer futuristic-it's functional. Hotels are already utilizing AI to integrate siloed systems, such as PMS, accounting, CRM, and forecasting platforms, to drive faster and smarter decisions. Tools like Placer.ai and PredictHQ help identify ideal customers through demographic, behavioral, and geolocation data. As automation expands, the next opportunity lies in strategic human oversight: consultants and managers will interpret AI outputs, guiding capital investments and operational priorities rather than being replaced by algorithms.

While the UK and Ireland has a substantial 174 one-star restaurants across its shores, the coveted three-Michelin-star rating remains as elusive as ever: just 10 restaurants in the region belong to the club. With the advent of each annual guide, the restaurant world looks on in anticipation, waiting to find out if said club has any new members. At the 2026 ceremony, held on February 9 in Dublin, no new restaurants made the cut.
