  What Higher Interest Rates Mean for Hotel Deals

  Oct 5, 20265 minS10

  Ryan Bosch of Arriba Capital joined me at The Lodging Conference to talk through one of the toughest parts of the hotel investment market right now: the numbers keep moving faster than the deals. Treasury yields jumped more than 100 basis points, refinancing got more expensive and buyers started reworking assumptions almost overnight. Ryan explains why that could slow acquisitions, push some owners toward a sale and put more pressure on hotel values as the market adjusts. At the same time, there's still plenty of debt capital looking for a home, which creates a very different dynamic than you'd expect in a higher-rate environment. That tension between expensive money and available capital is where the #HotelInvestment story gets interesting. Thanks so much to Actabl for supporting this podcast.

  How Hotel Leaders Build Relationships at The Lodging Conference

  Oct 5, 20266 minS10

  I'm at The Lodging Conference with Wayne West III , President of Newport Hospitality Group , and we get into something most people never really think about: how much value you can create from the conversations between the sessions. Wayne comes to events like this with a plan. He knows who he wants to see, what he wants to ask and where those conversations can sharpen the way he thinks about brands, competitors and the business overall. We also get into why he stays focused on adapting instead of waiting for the noise to clear, and what he's seeing across #HotelOperations as travel demand keeps holding up.Watch this one for a sharper look at how experienced #Hospitality leaders use industry relationships to make better decisions.

  Red Roof's Growth Strategy as Economy Hotels Gain Ground

  Oct 3, 20266 minS10

  Consumers don't shop for "economy hotels." They shop for a price point, a product they like and an experience that works for them. That's a big reason I think Red Roof has an interesting opportunity right now. At its conference in Fort Lauderdale, the company laid out plans to grow Red Roof Plus+, the traditional Red Roof brand and HomeTowne Studios, while also strengthening RediRewards and putting more focus on lighting, personalization and the guest experience. My takeaway: as hotel rates keep climbing, #EconomyHotels have a chance to compete for travelers who care less about our industry labels and more about what they're actually getting for the money. Here's my quick wrap-up from the conference and where I think Red Roof fits into the #Hospitality conversation.

  Hotel Marinas Turn Boat Traffic Into Revenue

  Sep 30, 202614 minS10

  A marina gives hotel owners another customer base without adding a single guestroom. Jeremy Parks, President of Trident Marine Group, joins me on No Vacancy to explain how boaters drive spending across restaurants, bars, pools, spas and other resort amenities. His point is simple: every marina slip creates another revenue-generating opportunity from people already arriving at the property. For #HotelOwners, that means looking beyond room count and thinking about how every asset on the property contributes to #HotelRevenue and the overall #GuestExperience. Watch this one to see how waterfront hotels turn marina traffic into more business across the entire property. Thanks so much to Actabl for supporting this podcast.

  Hotel Staffing: The Talent Pool Hotels Keep Overlooking

  Sep 29, 202615 minS10

  Hotels keep saying they can't find people. PRIDE Industries is showing them where to look. Darleyn Pazdel, SVP of Workforce Inclusion at PRIDE Industries, joins me on No Vacancy to talk about a workforce hotels still overlook: people with disabilities. PRIDE already puts this into practice across hospitality, including 56 employees with disabilities at Thunder Valley Casino Resort processing more than 3 million pounds of laundry a year. This isn't charity. It's #WorkforceInclusion tied directly to one of hospitality's biggest challenges: finding and keeping great people. Watch this one to see how you can widen your labor pool and strengthen your #HotelWorkforce. Thanks so much to Actabl for supporting this podcast. Actabl gives you the power to profit.
