With summer at its peak, vacation is top of mind. Be it an exotic resort perched at the ocean’s edge or a boutique hotel in the hippest cities, people are escaping their every day, discovering new places, and spending time with loved ones. We at Langan also think a lot about vacation destinations, in part because we have supported many of them here and abroad. In fact, there is a chance that the hotel or resort you’re staying at this summer is a Langan project.

“Our hospitality experience spans all industry sub-sectors, from chic urban hotels to established flags to popular casinos,” said Eric Schwarz, Principal at Langan with extensive experience in Florida and throughout Latin America. “Our multidiscipline services help get projects out of the ground and into the market worldwide. We work with hotel developers to identify potential technical and regulatory challenges early on and implement solutions that reduce construction costs while increasing their facility’s long-term operational efficiency.”

While the hospitality sector has experienced a global building boom in recent years, it is certainly not immune to risk, namely oversupply, lodging alternatives, and shifting guest preferences. Langan has remained at the leading edge of hotel development by working with builders and operators that are proactively navigating these issues.

For example, in bustling cities such as New York City and San Francisco, our hospitality projects have centered on design-forward boutique hotels; and in regional economic hubs like Panama and the United Arab Emirates, we are helping lay the groundwork for destination resorts to accommodate projected future spikes in tourism.
