About
Sky Hotels
We are an extension of your hospitality team.
Sky Hotels traces its roots to 2008, when we acquired our first hotel. What started as a single asset has grown into a multi-state platform that owns, operates, develops, and represents hotels across California and Arizona — under Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Hyatt, Wyndham, Sonesta, and Choice flags.
We work as an extension of ownership: long-horizon thinking on NOI and asset value, disciplined execution on brand standards, labor, and revenue management, and a construction and development arm that brings repositionings and ground-up builds online to brand standard.
We are dedicated to your success — and our track record speaks for us. Take a look at the portfolio to get an idea of what's possible.
What We Believe
Discipline compounds.
Brand standards, labor models, and revenue management are not optional. Executed every day, they compound into outsized returns.
Capital deserves a partner, not a vendor.
We invest alongside ownership thinking. Decisions are made on long-horizon NOI and asset value — not on management-fee optics.
Hospitality is a people business.
We hire general managers we'd want running our own assets, and we give them the systems and air cover to win.
