Hotel Project Finance.
Financing a hospitality project requires debt structured against the project's own future cash flows and construction risk, not just the sponsor's balance sheet — sized to the project's specific economics and timeline.
Project Cost Funding · Construction-Linked Disbursement · Long-Tenor Debt
Where This Applies
- A new hotel or resort development needs debt structured against construction cost and projected occupancy.
- Brand affiliation and management contracts affect how lenders view the project's commercial prospects.
- Occupancy and ADR assumptions need to be conservative and benchmarked against comparable assets.
- Seasonality in cash flows needs to be factored into the repayment structure.
How We Approach It
We benchmark occupancy and ADR assumptions against comparable properties rather than the operator's own projections, and factor brand affiliation and seasonality directly into the repayment structure.
