Nordic Hotel Consulting and Hotel Professionals enter into a strategic cooperation

Hotel Professionals and Nordic Hotel Consulting have entered into a strategic cooperation agreement, which will focus on providing cross-border hotel advisory services for Polish and Nordic clients.

The cooperation was brought by a need discovered to offer hotel consulting services for investors who are willing to enter the Polish market and hotel owners of Nordic origin already active in Poland. Hotel investment opportunities rapidly developing in Poland are of a vast interest among Scandinavian clients.

Poland, as the largest economy in Central and Eastern Europe and a country of growing importance in the EU, is also expanding fast in terms of the hotel real estate market. In the past few years, Poland has been the focus of renowned hotel chains entering the market and international investors. Since 2010, 30 hotels operating under international brands have opened, delivering over 4,300 hotel rooms to the market. Currently, at least 15 globally branded hotels are under development in Poland and only in 2016 there are plans to deliver over 1,000 hotel rooms.

“For the past few years, we have been noticing growing interest among Nordic investors in the Polish hotel sector. We were impressed by the greatly developing Polish hotel investment market, new projects and overall market perspectives. By combining expertise of the best hotel advisory authorities of the two markets, Hotel Professionals and Nordic Hotel Consulting, we will bring exceptional value proposition for both Nordic and Polish hotel players. Nordic Hotel Consulting understands the needs of the Nordic clients, and on the other hand Hotel Professionals has the best perspective and relations within the hotel sector in Poland.” says Knud Larsen, Partner and Founder, Nordic Hotel Consulting.

“We are excited about our cooperation with Nordic Hotel Consulting, the leading hotel advisory company in Northern Europe” says Managing Partner at Hotel Professionals, Alex Kloszewski, and continues: “The cooperation between our companies will bring synergies for both Polish and Nordic markets. Hotel Professionals and Nordic Hotel Consulting have many similarities and I believe by joining our expertise and market coverage we can greatly help Nordic investors entering the Polish market and hotel owners of Nordic origin active in Poland. As an example, Hotel Professionals is currently working for a Scandinavian investor in a MIPIM awarded multiuse project Dune City Mielno.”
