Hotel Investment in 2025: Time to Get Off the Sideline?

After a sluggish year for transactions, investors are eyeing 2025 with cautious optimism. 

As activity remained subdued—dragged down by rising debt costs and tighter capital markets—the fundamentals told a different story: strong trading performance, resilient income and long-term value.

At our upcoming Hotel Summit in Melbourne, one session will unpack the big question:

Is 2025 the moment for investors to step off the sidelines?



Meet our speakers

  • Tim Sherlock, Managing Director of Pro-invest

  • Sam McVay, Managing Director of McVay Real Estate

  • Lucia Grambalova, Chief Investment Officer and Head of Asset Management at Hotel Capital Partners




Together, they’ll analyze key themes shaping the market:

  • Is capital warming to hotels as a hedge against inflation?

  • Are international investors circling again as currency, cost and returns align?

  • What’s the outlook for transactional volumes—and will pricing find its floor?

  • Which markets and asset types are seeing renewed interest?

Don’t miss this session—along with many more—if you want to understand where the smart money is headed in the hotel sector. 



The Urban Developer Hotel Summit

Thursday, March 27 — W Melbourne
