Future of Hospitality within other Asset Classes - June 21th
Mauro Rial (CFO of South America at Accor) moderated the virtual session (June 21st, 2022) in a roundtable with global hoteliers, owners, developers, investors, and asset managers from 14 countries.
Important Takeaways:
- Failing focusing on an experiential standpoint could end up taking hotels out of competition with asset trends;
- Hoteliers might have the opportunity to capitalize by looking at offices and residential buildings on the trend of hotelization;
- ESG – Some hotel developments using photovoltaic solar panels can generate more than 80% of a hotel’s energy consumption;
- Delivering exceptional hospitality experiences asks for thinking beyond the hotel building;
- Customers do not always understand what ESG as a whole means. Investment community and authorities will play a major role in forcing the acceleration of change.
