Agreement Negotiations

Experience matters. We have pioneered a disproportionate share of agreement negotiations throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. As of 2025, Pearl Hospitality has negotiated over 345-hotel, 90-destination wellness resort, and 81 restaurant agreements with a combined asset value of $12.5bn. But numbers alone are not the point. The key point here is that with so many deals closed, we know how to tell “a good deal” from “a bad deal”. More importantly, we have the relationships and negotiating power to convert bad deals into the best deals.

Board Advisory

The expectations placed on boards by shareholders, regulators, the capital markets and other stakeholders have never been greater. In response, Pearl Hospitality’s board advisory experts provide Chairmans, CEO's and Board Members with an objective assessment of a firms structural integrity.

Global Expansion

Delivering sustainable shareholder growth often translates into expanding geographic boundaries and accessing new markets. While every expansion is accompanied by risks, our multinational experienced consultants come with a breadth of knowledge to ensure the opportunities outweigh the well-managed risks. Pearl Hospitality works with both operators and developers seeking to expand their legacy, through a systematic growth process that ensures consistency in repute and shareholder growth.

Highest and Best Usage Studies

Analytical proficiency. Clients want to be informed about how best to utilize a particular asset in generating the maximum yield. Rather than the traditional approach of having architects develop the area program, they assign this crucial phase to Pearl Hospitality, who has the strategic and financial competence in formulating project parameters built on financial prudency and local market intelligence.

Operator Search & Selection

It’s not just about finding an operator; it’s about finding the right one and on the right terms. This is a process that even experienced business people should not embark on unadvised. There are a myriad of operators out there looking to offer you their terms and manage your property for you. With a 20-30 year contract ahead though, it is a daunting task to take on since you need to be sure you are selecting the right one and on the best possible terms. The value of specialist advice is clear in this process. We have extensive experience gained over many years of running effective competitive tenders and negotiating the best terms.
