HEI Hotels & Resorts is proud to be recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of the 2026–2027 Best Companies to Work For in Hospitality and Entertainment.
U.S. News announced its 2026–2027 Best Companies to Work For ratings on June 30, 2026. For the first time, the annual ratings recognized both publicly traded and privately owned companies in a single release, evaluating organizations across 14 industries.
This recognition reflects HEI’s longstanding commitment to investing in its associates and creating a workplace where talented hospitality professionals can build meaningful and rewarding careers. Through the company’s pioneering HEI Loves culture, HEI focuses on supporting its people with competitive benefits, professional development, leadership opportunities and an inclusive environment where associates can thrive.
U.S. News developed its Best Companies to Work For ratings with input from industry experts. Companies were evaluated across six key areas: quality of pay and benefits, work-life balance and flexibility, job and company stability, physical and psychological comfort, belongingness and esteem, and career opportunities and professional development.
From property-level development programs to companywide initiatives supporting women in leadership, diversity and inclusion, associate wellness and career advancement, HEI continues to strengthen the resources available to its teams. Associates are also encouraged to expand their experience through cross-training, task force assignments and advancement opportunities throughout the portfolio.
Being named among the Best Companies to Work For in Hospitality and Entertainment reinforces a principle that has guided HEI for more than four decades: investing in people creates stronger teams, more memorable guest experiences and greater long-term value for hotel owners and partners.
