2025 ROSE Awards

ROSE Awards

More than 20 years ago, Visit Detroit began a celebration of our hospitality industry’s workforce with the Recognition of Service Excellence (ROSE) Award. This award recognizes the individuals whose efforts make our region a great place to work, stay and play.

We’re proud to honor the hospitality industry because it embodies metro Detroit’s values of reinvention, ambition, and hard work. Their success is our region’s – bringing in over 19 million visitors and $6.6 billion every year.

The William F. McLaughlin Hospitality Award for Service Excellence celebrates best practices and innovation in customer service.
