Following support with operator shortlisting and interviewing, we will secure commercially sound agreements to safeguard your financial interests through contract development and negotiation and later, performance benchmarking to ensure your asset performs to its highest potential.
Our job is to limit the investment exposure and structure an operational agreement that supports long term value creation and profit-generation.
We can manage the full process, from recommending which management model is the best fit for the property and why, assessing the brand strategy, and working with you to identify, evaluate and appoint the operator best aligned with your vision, who will deliver superior returns for your hotel.
Our proprietary selections process maps hundreds of elements of the operator proposals and compares them side-by-side. We consider so much more than just the financials; while they’re critical, it’s often the less tangible criteria that become key to determining the best ‘fit’ for your asset and may even represent significant financial impact.
Following the recommendation for the optimal operator, we negotiate the key commercial terms to the MOU stage and provide guidance to specialist HMA lawyers to ensure the best possible arrangements for owners.
The selection process:
The independent review of the ultra-luxury lodge ownership and competitive marketplace was a quality piece of work that has significantly contributed to Baillie Lodges (owned by KSL Capital Partners) understanding of this niche, high yielding segment and the subsequent creation of the strategic M&A plan. Their intimate understanding of our investment objectives, the unique investment thesis for this asset sub-class and personal involvement in the process from start to finish were central to the production of a well scoped, thoroughly researched and highly relevant management tool that was delivered at project completion. We will be using them again!
Hotel Advisors delivered one of the most comprehensive independent feasibility studies and market assessments we have seen. It has fundamentally shaped our operator selection process including engagement with the world’s leading ultra luxury hospitality brands.

I thoroughly recommend Rodger as a professional that delivers tangible results.
In a time when most people soften their advice with disclaimers, Rodger sticks to the old-school approach—telling you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear—and that is truly invaluable
