Who runs this hotel?

Three different companies can sit behind one hotel. How this works

OperatorThe company responsible for the hotel's day-to-day operations — hiring and training staff, service, food and beverage, housekeeping and revenue management. It can be different from both the owner and the brand.
Empiria Group

Not the brand company — The Luxury Collection supplies the name; Empiria Group runs the hotel.

BrandThe name on the door. The brand company sets standards and supplies the reservation system and loyalty programme — but it does not always run the hotel itself.
The Luxury Collection · Marriott International
OwnerThe company that owns the building as a real-estate asset. Owners are often property developers, REITs or investment funds, and they may have no role in daily operations.
