South Carolina's hospitality industry consists of our state's largest private-sector employer restaurants, hotels, motels, resorts, bars, bed & breakfasts, nightclubs and inns.  In South Carolina, home of some of America's most beautiful and historic places, the hospitality industry consists of the smiling faces that help make a wonderful vacation, a delightful dinner or the expertise that exemplifies culinary excellence or delightful experiences. 

Whether you are looking for a unique fine dining experience, or something fast and inexpensive, you will find it in our state.  If you want to stay at an exclusive resort, or just need a place by the highway, our members can accommodate your needs.

The Hospitality Association of South Carolina is the state's trade association for the lodging and foodservice industry and was formed in 1993 by the South Carolina Hotel & Motel and the South Carolina Restaurant Associations, our membership divisions.  The two non-profit associations date back to 1947 and 1950 respectively.
