A positive solution for difficult times

As hotel owners in 2003, Thomas and Melissa Magnuson launched the US company as an alternative to traditional franchise chains. The goal was to help hotel owners succeed on their own terms, without the corporate restraints of publicly traded conglomerates. Abiding by this simple ethos for 18 years, Magnuson Hotels has become a recognised global brand. 

Magnuson Hotels offers a transparent, stable and positive solution to UK hotel property landlords and asset owners that are searching for an alternative to lease arrangements with broken promises and/or traditional hotel brand agreements with additional hidden costs and expensive brand standards. 

Unlike hotel brands who only offer a standard one-size-fits-all proposition, all Magnuson Hotels’ asset owners are provided with a bespoke strategy unique to their market following a comprehensive review of each hotel’s situation. Our brand and operation management will produce a higher revenue stream than typical lease arrangements or traditional hotel brand franchise models for asset owners. 

Branded as a Magnuson Hotel, you will be supported by revenue management, marketing and operations all headquartered in London. We will not require any chain level renovations and will offer you a dedicated area of protection. It can be expected that other hotel franchise brands will be requiring property improvements at owner’s expense, usually at a minimum of £2000 per room as soon as the economy improves a bit from Covid.
