Lark Capital creates bespoke hotels in iconic destinations throughout the U.S.
Development With Purpose
By being nimble and creative, without getting caught up in the dicta how things “should be”, we find opportunity in overlooked assets in order deliver outstanding experiences to our guests and value to our investors. We have been first movers to niche markets that have historically been overlooked by institutional investors. By limiting buyer competition, we acquire assets at bases that allows room to invest the significant capital necessary to transform them in top tier competitors.
As a vertically integrated developer and operator with close ties to Lark Hotels, a leader in the management of boutique hotels, and Elder & Ash, a nationally-recognized design studio, we have the ability to take on challenges from which others shy away.
Our Special Sauce
We have built our business around the belief that specific iconic markets dominated by independent operators, avoided by institutional capital and national brands, and desired by the consumer offer an opportunity for superior returns. Within these markets we search for opportunities with challenges that align with our core development, design and operational competencies in order to ultimately deliver quintessential leisure experiences for our guests.
Iconic Properties in Iconic Destinations
We believe in developing market leading hotels in market leading destinations. Our focus on A+ leisure markets that are on the tip of your tongue is core to our investment thesis.
Within those markets we look for opportunities to reposition properties that need some love but have endless potential.
When the thesis is proven, the results are truly iconic. See for yourself!
A Proven Track Record
For ten years, through the redevelopment of more than 20 distressed hotels, we have honed our craft, launched award winning hotels and delivered exceptional returns to our investors.
The results don’t lie. Our renovations and repositioning of challenged assets in iconic markets drives ADR, Occupancy and RevPAR and our partnership with the industry leading operator of boutique hotels allows more money to flow to the bottom line.
The People Behind the Passion
The truth about us is that we are deal junkies. We love the search, the planning, the creation, the hard work and the strategy that goes into developing hotels.
We oversee every aspect of real estate development from acquisition to disposition and we are proud of the relationships we form with our partners, our investors, our team and our communities along the way.
We take nothing more seriously than being honest stewards of your investment.
