QUESTIONS OWNERS ASK
Direct answers about Optimum Hospitality
What is hotel asset management?
Active oversight of the owner's investment: revenue, GOP and cash flow, capital plans, brand and operator performance, and quality audits. Optimum represents the owner, not the operator or the franchisor.
How is this different from hotel management?
Hotel management runs the building day to day. Asset management sits on the owner's side of the table and holds whoever is operating — a chain, a third party, or Optimum itself — to the numbers and the asset plan.
What do you monitor for owners?
Budgets and forecasts, balance sheets, daily trading against the competitive set, operator and brand performance, capital spend and ROI, and operational quality.
