Development

Hawkeye Hotels brings over 30 years of proven experience in creating profitable development opportunities through new construction and redevelopment projects. Our team understands how to identify sound investments and conduct market analysis. We quickly adapt to challenges and solve problems while our principals work alongside all stakeholders. As a result, Hawkeye Hotels has a true stake in the success of each asset.

Construction

Our expert in-house technical staff and strong partnerships with contractors have helped us get hotel construction down to a science. Excellent teamwork and expertise in real estate, construction, design, procurement, and management set us apart. We develop new assets on-time, on-budget and on-target with financial projections and guest satisfaction ratings.

Redevelopment

Hawkeye Hotels finds the right aging assets to rebrand and renovate. Meticulous planning, design, and execution help us reflect the chosen brand's image in the final product. Franchisors, lenders, and local communities frequently recognize our redevelopment achievements.

Investment

Sound investment decisions result in consistent profitability. Our team works to identify excellent investment opportunities, manage complex development projects, and maintain high standards. Hawkeye Hotels' proven track record of financial success through market cycles sets us apart from other hospitality firms. We also have maintained strong relationships with investors and partners, some for up to 30 years. Last, we strive to reward all stakeholders, including guests, owners and associates. All partners can be assured of profitability through Hawkeye Hotels.

Management

At Hawkeye Hotels, we bridge communication and consistency to create an effective management team. Our dedicated corporate leaders and enthusiastic general managers know each other by name. Our open communication policy enhances employee satisfaction and ensures proactive customer service.

We also have created efficient operational systems and procedures across all our properties. Every property operates within the same framework, making it possible for any manager to effectively step into any of our properties at a moment's notice. In our operations, we approach daily financial performance with the same consistency and attention as strategic planning and long-term performance.

While bringing all functions in-house, we've realized a greater cohesion among team members. Our various departments include Operations, Sales, Revenue Management, eCommerce, IT, Accounting, Development, Acquisitions, Purchasing, and Human Resources.
