FOR OWNERS & OPERATORS

Hotel Advisory Services

How I Can Help

As an independent hotel advisor serving the UK and Ireland, I provide expert hotel management services designed to improve operations, grow revenue, and enhance guest satisfaction.

With more than 20 years of experience in hotel operations, property management, and commercial performance, I help owners and operators optimise their hotels, reduce costs, and improve profitability year on year.

My services support boutique hotels, independent properties, and multi-site operators looking to strengthen results and maximise asset value.

Reviewing multi-property portfolios

I work with owners, investors, and operators to assess the performance of single assets and multi-property portfolios. This includes operational reviews, commercial benchmarking, cost analysis, and identifying opportunities to improve profitability, efficiency, and long-term asset value.

Reviewing a single hotel

For individual hotels, I provide focused, practical reviews covering operations, staffing, revenue performance, and guest experience. Each analysis delivers clear actions to address underperformance, grow revenue, and support informed operational or investment decisions.

Hotel Operations & Performance

Day-to-day operational oversight, service standards and SOP creation, staffing models and efficiency audits, and troubleshooting the parts of the operation that are not performing.

Revenue Growth & Commercial Strategy

Pricing strategy and dynamic rate management, OTA and distribution optimisation, marketing improvements and upselling frameworks that grow revenue without the costs growing with it.

Hotel Turnaround & Repositioning

For underperforming hotels, and assets that are idle or working against you. Operational reset, cost reduction, revenue repair, and repositioning the property to rebuild trading performance.

Hotel Acquisition & Feasibility

For investors and owners evaluating a purchase or new project. Feasibility studies, commercial due diligence, trading potential, and CapEx and refurbishment planning before you commit.

Cost, Labour & F&B Margins

Payroll, rotas, F&B margins and departmental cost lines reviewed to right-size staffing, supplier and utility spend — without taking it out of the guest experience.

Full Hotel Management & Advisory

For owners who want a hands-off approach. Full operational oversight, monthly reporting, budget control, team leadership, supplier management and long-term strategic guidance.

Multi-Property & Portfolio Oversight

Consistent standards and accountability across several sites. Shared operating procedures, comparable weekly reporting, and the management information an owner needs without being in every hotel.

Housekeeping Performance & Technology

Room standards, cleaning times and daily room plans brought under proper measurement — including the housekeeping app I built and run in my own hotel.

Housekeeping Performance & Technology

Housekeeping is usually the largest controllable cost in the hotel and the least measured. Measured cleaning times, fair room allocation, a real cost per occupied room — and, where it earns its place, the technology to run it day to day.
