The hotel in this example
Grand Hotel des Sources is a 1900s inn being renovated into a 24-room wellness hotel offering getaways, short mineral-spring stays and corporate retreats. The deck covers:
- Four revenue streams: rooms at $230 a night, breakfast, spa treatments and retreat packages
- A $2.2bn wellness lodging market, $218M serviceable in the region
- Five Saratoga Springs competitors compared, from historic hotels to chains
- Revenue of $1.3M in 2026 and $2.1M in 2028, profitable from the first year
- A $1.5M ask: a $900,000 bank loan and $600,000 of equity for 35% of the company
- A team of three partners: hotel management, finance and renovation, spa operations
The pitch deck, slide by slide
The slides that matter most to an investor or a lender, and what they say about the hotel.
- 01
The problem
One photo, one sentence: local lodging, baths and activities are fragmented and seasonal, with no simple way to book a restorative stay. The Lumière design lets the image carry the message.
- 02
The solution
A charming hotel that bundles rooms, breakfast, spa and retreats into one-to-three-night packages, positioned between budget lodging and large spa resorts.
- 03
The market
From the wellness lodging market ($2.2bn) to what 24 rooms can capture, each figure sourced and explained.
- 04
Who we serve
Leisure couples and friends from New York City, Albany and Boston, wellness guests and companies planning retreats: each persona with its expectations and booking channel.
- 05
How we make money
Room nights, food, spa and retreat packages next to the segments that buy them: a profitable hotel lives on its ancillary revenue too.
- 06
Where we stand
A map places the hotel against the historic properties and chains in town: more integrated than the chains, more accessible than the big resorts.
- 07
The numbers
Revenue, gross margin, expenses and EBITDA over three years: $2.1M of revenue in 2028 and a profit from the first year.
- 08
The ask
$1.5M combining debt and equity, with the terms of each line. The next slide breaks down the valuation.
What this example teaches about hotel pitch decks
In hospitality, investors look at occupancy and ADR first, then at ancillary revenue. The hotel plans 60% to 76% occupancy at around $230 a night and earns more than a quarter of its revenue from the spa and retreats: those are the assumptions to source.
The mixed structure (loan plus equity) is common: the bank funds the building and the works, investors fund operations. For the lender file, see our hotel business plan example.
Hotel pitch deck: frequently asked questions
Room count, occupancy, average daily rate (ADR), the share of ancillary revenue (food, spa, events), EBITDA margin and the renovation budget. Investors compare them with nearby properties.
On one slide: $1.5M in total, $900,000 of bank debt over 10 years at 7.5% and $600,000 of equity for 35% of the company. The next slide shows the valuation that sets that share.
Yes, the structure stays the same: swap rooms, rates and ancillary revenue. For the full lender file, see our hotel business plan template.
