Why We Are Here
HospitalityMD is the hotel management solution for the modern hotel industry.
With nearly a combined two decades of experience in the hotel industry working for brands and traditional management companies, HospitalityMD’s founders have concluded, ironically, that hotels tend to be some of the most inhospitable places.
We deploy genuine and authentic care and hospitality because we’ve spent our careers on the other side working for “the other guys.”
Accountants and controllers think they’re running the hotel’s operations, but in reality are running away from the foundation of good hospitality.
They work “on” the business of Hospitality, while we work “in” the business of Hospitality.
As the centerpieces of cities and towns, hotels are tasked with the tremendous honor and responsibility of writing the narrative that guides the community. HospitalityMD places a premium value on the stories of a hotel’s guests and team members, leveraging this diversity of thought and experience to create a people-first atmosphere where people trust one another.
