Testimonials
“STAY WYSE is the most valuable independent hostel industry conference at the moment in the world, which combines business and fun.”
“This was our first time attending STAY WYSE as a company and we were blown away by the conference. From start to finish the organisation was top-notch.”
“Incredibly smooth organisation, but really a fantastic balance and mix of business meetings / social events / educational talks. The business appointments are a really great system.”
