How flexible tech stacks empower unique guest experiences and smarter investment decisions

Apr 8, 2025

Successful hotel investment goes beyond just crunching numbers. In a recent “Matt Talks Hospitality” episode, Mews CEO Matt Welle and L+R Hotels’ Joe Pettigrew explore how top investors combine financial acumen with guest experience, operational flexibility, and tech-savvy strategies to make smarter decisions in today’s evolving market.

Key takeaways

  • Brand vs. independent – tech is a deciding factor: Branded hotels offer less tech freedom, while independents allow custom tech stacks – critical for delivering standout guest experiences.
  • Flexibility is a competitive edge: Being able to choose and adapt tech systems to specific guest needs and visions can set a hotel apart.
  • AI’s practical uses are emerging: L+R uses AI (like large language models) to improve guest engagement and feedback management, but warns against falling for buzzwords.
  • Investors drive innovation: True hospitality innovation requires bold investors willing to back independent assets and support customized, tech-enabled experiences.
  • Hospitality still matters most: Great hotel experiences begin with warmth and ease. Technology should enhance – not hinder – the personal touch.
