Brandteliers supports hotel owners and developers through operator selection and brand search for new hotels, resorts, conversions and branded residences. Working on the owner's side, our development advisory team reviews operating models, including management agreements, franchise, leases and independent operation, then runs a structured operator search. We assess brand fit against the site, the market and the concept, prepare the request for proposal, compare fees, key money, performance tests and technical standards side by side, and support owners and their lawyers through negotiation. Our brand strategists judge whether each brand's guest profile, design language and service style suit the property and the place. The result is an informed choice of partner and an agreement that protects the owner as well as the brand. We support operator searches across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
Our development advisory team leads the commercial work. Our brand strategists judge fit: whether a brand's guest, design language and service style suit the property and the place. Owners get both views in one process.
Operating Model Review
Management agreement, franchise, lease or independent. We set out what each model means for control, fees, risk and exit, so you choose the structure before you choose the brand.
Brand Fit Assessment
We assess which brands suit the site, the market and the concept. Guest profile, design standards, distribution strength and existing presence in the area.
Request for Proposal
We prepare the information pack and run a structured process. Each operator responds to the same brief, so proposals can be compared fairly.
Proposal Comparison
We compare fees, key money, performance tests, technical requirements and brand standards side by side. Hidden costs and weak terms become visible.
Negotiation Support
We support you and your lawyers through term sheet and agreement negotiation. The goal is a deal that protects the owner as well as the brand.
Technical Standards Alignment
Once a brand is chosen, we align the design team with its standards early. This avoids redesign, delay and cost later in the programme.
New Developments
For new hotels and resorts, the operator search should start before design is fixed. Brand standards shape room sizes, back of house and public areas. Early selection saves months and money.
Rebranding & Conversions
For existing hotels, we help owners decide whether to change brand, change operator or move to a franchise with a third-party manager. We test each route before you open talks.
Branded Residences
Residential brands carry their own fees, standards and buyer expectations. We help you select an operator whose residential offer supports sales and protects long-term value.
What You Receive
A clear recommendation on operating model and brand, a shortlist with evidence, a structured proposal process and a side-by-side comparison of terms. You stay in control of the decision. We make sure it is an informed one.
