Negotiating Hotel Management Contracts

 This publication contains everything you need to know to negotiate a hotel management contract.  The management contract is probably the most important agreement that a hotel owner will sign.  Unlike many agreements, hotel management contracts are highly negotiated requiring intimate knowledge of all the terms and conditions.  To negotiate a fair contract you must have a strategy for obtaining your desired contract provisions- many of which are not so apparent. 


Negotiating Hotel Management Contracts covers a wide variety of topics including: 

  • The different types of hotel management companies 
  • How to select a management company
  • How to develop a negotiating strategy
  • What clauses are most important what are least important
  • Should the management company bring a flag


The publication contains over 70 pages of contract clauses from actual hotel management contracts arranged topically into 11 different sections.  Each clause shows its orientation- Owner Oriented, Operator-Oriented or Neutral.  This identification of orientation should allow the user to select the clauses that best represent their interest.

Price: Negotiating Hotel Management Contacts:  $75
