Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Surveying the hotel demand and development landscape with Vision Hospitality's Mitch Patel
Q: What should the industry concentrate on to be resilient in the near term?
Focus on controllables like associate engagement, guest satisfaction, and increasing market share through sales efforts, while improving operating efficiency and cost management to navigate higher commodity and labor costs.
Surveying the hotel demand and development landscape with Vision Hospitality's Mitch Patel
Q: What role do brand quality and location play in reducing risk and driving returns?
We only partner with premium brands and target markets with strong job and population growth, especially in the Sun Belt, because location and brand quality together drive guest appeal and operational performance, which supports better returns even as costs rise.
Surveying the hotel demand and development landscape with Vision Hospitality's Mitch Patel
Q: How do you approach uncertainty when it comes to development costs and timelines?
We look out three years or more, understand that design, entitlement, and build time add up, and we focus on long-term value and operating fundamentals rather than trying to time the exact opening. We rely on patient capital and a long horizon to weather cycles and remain disciplined in our brand and market choices.
Recapping Day 1 of IHIF EMEA 2026 in Berlin
Q: Is there optimism that travel to Europe will continue despite flat GDP growth?
Yes, there is belief that travel demand can decouple from GDP growth in Europe, with the market expected to continue attracting travelers from the US, China, and other regions due to its enduring appeal and historical demand.
Recapping Day 1 of IHIF EMEA 2026 in Berlin
Q: What have you been hearing today about the geopolitical outlook for the region?
There's acknowledgment of greater disruption compared to a decade ago, but an expectation that the industry will adapt and possibly see some aspects calm down in the short term as markets adjust.
