Lemon Tree Hotels’ Post

One aspect that has stood out to Rockingham Partners in the first half of 2024 is that whilst sometimes painful, constant change in today’s independent hotel market is an absolute necessity to remain competitive. So the option is always our own. The pain of growth or the cost of inaction. It’s usually a fairly straightforward calculation. If you want to discuss some of the game changing strategies we are discussing with our clients drop us a line. Michael Lashmar Faye Kelly #independenthotels #change #growth

Great interview here from industry legend Teague Hunter with another industry legend, Choice Hotels International's own Chief Development Officer, David Pepper.

Did you know the average stay of a Residence Inn is approximately 28 days? Gems of knowledge are known by guys like this man here. He’s an absolute icon in the hospitality industry. Dinesh Rama of NewGen Advisory is easily the most knowledgeable hospitality expert I know. He’s way too humble to admit that, though. We’re building something great, just keep your eyes peeled. #ParkRise #motelstoapartments #Advisors #getitdone

Unexpected Thrills in the Hotel Industry! The underdog, Choice Hotels, dares to shoot its shot with a whopping $7.8 billion bid towards the titan Wyndham Hotels and Resorts. Unfortunately, it all ends in vain as Wyndham not only rejects but even labels the offer as 'underwhelming'. The market reacted with astonishment, as Wyndham's shares catapulted 13% to $78.48, still safely nested below Choice's generous $90 per share offer. Word on Wall Street, the incredible premium of 30%, sparked a myriad of speculations. Choice Hotels, fighting tooth and nail to expand their kingdom of Econo Lodge and Quality Inn, saw a perfect match in Wyndham's Days Inn and Travelodge. But alas, love is tough and the beautiful unit growth dream collapses. Our tale takes a twist as Wyndham slings back at Choice, accusing their offer to be 'highly conditional' and riddled with 'regulatory and execution risk'. They further state, 'Choice has been unwilling or unable to address our concerns', hinting at a potential icy standoff. Put on your seatbelt folks, we are in for a bumpy ride! Could this be a strategic move from Wyndham or are they genuinely skeptical towards the risky merger with Choice Hotels? #franchise #franchising #hotels

I identified the main reason why hospitality businesses fail. Many of them focus on their service. But what matters is the hospitality. Many business owners don't even know the difference between SERVICE and HOSPITALITY..... Service is a skill.  Hospitality is a spirit. Service is what you do for the guest. Hospitality is what you do with them. Service is how you treat a guest.  Hospitality is how you make them feel. #customerexperience #customerservice #hospitality #service #business #growth
