HOTEL · FEASIBILITY RESEARCH

Hotel Feasibility Study

Evaluate a new hotel, repositioning or expansion through demand generators, the competitive set, occupancy, average daily rate and site suitability. FDS examines whether the proposed hotel fits its market and investment assumptions.

Hotel building and landscaped grounds

THE QUESTIONS THAT MATTER

Match the hotel concept to the market opportunity.

Before committing to a site or an operating plan, test the assumptions that will drive the project’s performance.

  1. What demand comes from business travel, tourism and events?
  2. How does the proposed hotel compare with existing and planned supply?
  3. What occupancy and average daily rate assumptions are supportable?
  4. How do development and operating costs affect financial feasibility?

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE OPPORTUNITY

What the study examines.

Industry-specific research connects site conditions and market evidence to the financial picture.

01 / STUDY SCOPE

Market & demand

Tourism, corporate travel, events, airports and highway access inform the potential sources and timing of room demand.

02 / STUDY SCOPE

Site & brand fit

Location, infrastructure, hotel class and brand fit are assessed alongside the project concept.

03 / STUDY SCOPE

Competitive set

Existing hotels and pipeline supply provide context for positioning, occupancy and rate assumptions.

04 / STUDY SCOPE

Revenue assumptions

Occupancy, ADR and ancillary revenue are considered together; revenue per available room connects occupancy and room rates.

05 / STUDY SCOPE

Financial feasibility

Development costs, FF&E and operating assumptions feed the financial forecast, DSCR, breakeven and sensitivity analysis.

06 / THE REPORT

Findings in context

The executive summary brings together the project overview, key assumptions and feasibility conclusion. The agreed scope reflects the project and its information requirements.
