Membership & Marketing Intern
American Hotel & Lodging Association:
Who We Are and What We Do.
For more than 100 years, the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) has been the foremost representative of and advocate for the U.S. lodging industry. We are the only national association that represents all segments of an industry that is among the 10 largest business sectors in America. We advocate for our members so they can do their best at what matters most: serving guests, employees, and their communities.
From major global brands to small inns and bed & breakfasts, AHLA provides a singular voice that brings together the industry’s multitude of constituents. Our industry is incredibly diverse and represents everyone from brand CEOs to independent hotel owners, general managers, and hotel staff and is an integral contributor to the American economy. Our offices are located in Washington, D.C.
AHLA Internship Program
AHLA offers paid summer internship opportunities: in government relations, membership services, and communications. We strive to offer a comprehensive internship program that provides insight into association work and vast exposure to the hotel and lodging industry, including hands-on learning and the opportunity to create a relevant portfolio to present to future employers.
Interns will be based at our headquarters in D.C., where they will participate in initiatives such as policy, advocacy, communications, member engagement, strategic partnerships, or one of our many AHLAF programs. Interns will also participate in training and development opportunities. The program starts in June and finishes in August. Interns will be paid $25/hr bi-weekly and will be expected to work 40 hours per week. In addition to competitive hourly pay, AHLA offers all interns a transportation stipend of $75 per month to help absorb commuting costs.
The 2026 Internship program will be hybrid with Tuesday-Thursday in the Washington DC office. Interns are responsible for their own health insurance, housing, and travel expenses to and from Washington, D.C. Must be available for 10-12 weeks after June 8, 2026 start.

Candidates must be eligible to work in the U.S., have a strong interest in the hospitality industry, and have at least a 3.0 GPA. Interested candidates should submit a letter of interest and a resume. Interviews will take place on a rolling basis and final decisions will be made no later than June 6, 2026.
