The firm’s hotels and leisure team has over the years built up a strong reputation in the hotels sector, advising many of the country’s leading hotel investors, developers, financiers and operators on day- to-day operations as well as more specialist projects. Involvement in this event, therefore, provided a very good fit for the firm.

Property and Infrastructure Partner Hugh Smith, who heads up the team commented: “This event provides the unique opportunity to connect with key figures in the hotel finance sector. We are looking forward to the discussion on significant developments that have taken place in the sector over the last 12 months and learning from the experiences and views of impressive speaker line-up. We are pleased to sponsor the drinks reception.”

It attracts hotel owners, investors and operators, their chief executives and finance directors, as well as brands, lenders, agents, advisors and consultants.
