With a track record dating back as far as 1869, PKF is the pioneer in hospitality consulting.

Impact of higher inflation and higher interest rates on hotel real estate assets
- Hospitality real estate assets have historically fared better than other real estate
investments during periods of rising inflation, particularly in the upscale and luxury segment. - Historically, an interest rate increase of 100bp resulted in an increase of 28bp in cap rates, suggesting that preservation of value considerations during such an environment trumps other factors.
- However, inflation can pose significant challenges – particularly if it gets out of control – this raises concerns particularly for lessors with long-term fixed lease contracts.
