Our hotel profitability audit is a forensic review of the property’s performance. We analyze every line item of the Profit & Loss statement, benchmark costs against a curated peer set, and scrutinize vendor contracts, labor costs, and departmental efficiencies. We look for hidden waste and cost leakages, often providing quick wins that deliver immediate, measurable improvements to Net Operating Income (NOI) and EBITDA.

Fees for hotel asset management services vary based on the scope of work and the size of the asset or hotel portfolio management. They are typically structured as a fixed monthly retainer, often representing a small percentage of the asset's total revenue, or sometimes a combination of a retainer and an incentive fee tied directly to exceeding pre-defined performance benchmarks (EBITDA growth). Our fee structure ensures our success is directly linked to the owner's increased profitability.

We maintain a professional, results-oriented relationship. Our role is to ensure the operator is fully accountable to the owner's strategic and financial goals as defined in the Management or Franchise Agreement. We challenge budgets, approve major expenditures, guide capital planning, and participate in key review meetings. This constant oversight ensures the operator remains focused on optimizing the financial performance of the hotel assets.

Asset management is crucial for CapEx. We rigorously review every proposed capital expenditure, ensuring it is necessary, cost-effective, and—most importantly—will yield a quantifiable return on investment (ROI) or enhance the asset’s long-term market position. We help the owner budget and prioritize CapEx to prevent non-essential spending and preserve cash, maximizing the eventual sale price of the property.

Yes, we provide specialized hotel portfolio management for owners with multiple assets. Our focus is on strategic synergy across the portfolio, identifying shared efficiencies, and ensuring each property's strategy aligns with the owner's overall investment thesis. We centralize reporting, simplify owner-operator communication, and ensure consistent accountability across all hotel assets.

They are seamlessly integrated. The Asset Manager utilizes the detailed forecasts and performance data generated by the Revenue Management team to hold the operator accountable for top-line revenue targets. We ensure that the Revenue Strategies for Hotels are fully implemented, and we use the financial outcomes to directly inform all CapEx and operational improvement decisions.

Hospitality asset management is essential throughout the entire lifecycle, but it is critical during periods of distress, strategic transition (rebranding or repositioning), or in the lead-up to a potential sale. However, continuous management, particularly in the first few years of operation, is key to establishing cost controls and accountability that prevent long-term underperformance.

We provide concise, customized monthly and quarterly reports that cut through the operator's often complex data. These reports focus on key owner metrics: Net Operating Income (NOI), EBITDA, cash flow, CapEx spending against budget, and a clear breakdown of operator performance versus the competitive set. Our reporting simplifies financial oversight, allowing owners to focus on strategic decisions.

We maximize exit value by ensuring the property is sold at peak performance. This involves implementing a strict hotel profitability audit and cost control measures to drive up NOI in the years prior to sale, strategically timing key renovations to maximize market appeal, and presenting clear, defensible performance metrics to potential buyers and their due diligence teams.
