Hotel Development Model v1.2
Updated 17 September 2026. The screenshots are generated from the actual workbook. Illustrative defaults must be replaced and independently reviewed for live decisions.
WHAT THE MODEL DOES
From assumptions to an auditable investment case.
A hotel feasibility and development model built around rooms, ADR, occupancy, seasonality and ancillary revenue. It translates operational assumptions into development cost, NOI, debt capacity, cost per key and investor returns.
How to use it
- Read the instructions and checks before changing the workbook.
- Replace blue input cells with deal-specific costs, timing, operations and financing.
- Review monthly cash flow, peak funding and the debt schedule before relying on returns.
- Run the downside case and confirm every validation check equals zero.
- Export the dashboard only after an independent review of assumptions and formulas.
