Frequently Asked Questions

The TOPHOTELPROJECTS FREE TRIAL provides you with a gratis access to a limited sample selection of 70 projects randomly derived from the total database, currently containing more than 4,500 worldwide projects.

Should you like to see the entire database – because „seeing is believing“ – and/or would like us to explain to you the various functions, get in touch to arrange a LIVE TEAMVIEWER TOUR. We are happy to show you that we know (nearly) all global top hotel projects.

We supply detailed project information such as the full address, hotel operating company, hotel type & category, number of rooms, investment volume, scheduled opening date as well as the current project status. And of course relevant contacts!

We are permanently look out for and supply contacts from the groupings “ownership” (investor, owner, consultant), “project execution” (contractor, interior designer, architect, developer, project management) and “operation” (hotel company, franchise, hotel management company, pre-opening office) that either are you direct point of contact or help you identify your decision maker.

An international team of specialists permanently researches and updates the project data.

We are in direct touch with investors, project developers and hotel operators and day in, day out consult professional business information services, the media and internet.

The research data findings are bundled in the online database products TOPHOTELPROJECTS or TOPHOTELCHAINS, are regularly updated and therefore are at the subscriber’s disposition for his/her market analysis or sales activities any time anywhere.

Of course you can dedicate your time and resources researching project information yourself. Enter for example the word “hotel project” in Google and you will get some 700.000 findings. You can well imagine that only a fractional amount of this really meets your specific information requirements. And this is only one keyword entered in one source of information.

We research worldwide in all kinds of publically available information sources, communicate with investors, developers, hotel operators en, architects and interior designers. The data is verified and efficiently bundled so that subscribers always have instant sales lead access. This permanent research process includes the continuous update of all registered projects to capture any further and relevant project development news.

For each project this means hours of qualified research. Subscribing to TOPHOTELPROJECTS you outsource this weary work to us, so you are able to focus on your true business objectives. Hence, you save time and money.

All projects are recorded according to the following statuses:

• in progress
• delayed
• cancelled
• open

Our projects remain in the database until 3 months after their official opening

• vision

A project vision is a project data sheet that so far does not contain sufficient   data according to our quality standards, i.e. too little, backed up data for a final project recording. A project vision is under close observation. Should its status change it will consequently be updated.
 

Each project is verified and updated in accordance to a defined resubmission process. This includes the validation of, for example, the opening date or the completion of relevant project contacts.

Should you come across different or missing project and/or contact data, please let us know. We will immediately check and update the respective project data set.

All our recurrent comparative analysis clearly shows that TOPHOTELPROJECTS possess valid project data information on nearly all upcoming hotel projects in the top end of the hotel market (luxury, first class, middle class hotel).

Should you come across different or missing projects, please let us know. We will immediately check and integrate the respective project.

The hotel construction and development business is a highly complex business with manifold decision making processes that differ from project to project. Depending on the contractual agreement between the investor, the general contractor as well as other sub-contracted companies, there are different approaches.  This can also include the hotel operator or the central purchasing unit monitoring the potentially pre-set equipment standards for its FF&E (furniture, fittings & equipment) and OS&E (operation service & equipment). And often architects and interior designers do also have their saying, play a decisive role. Not forgetting consultants, project managers, per-opening managers and other specialists.
