Savills Plc, a prominent UK real estate advisor, has announced its acquisition of a majority interest in Hotelivate, a hospitality consulting firm, to bolster its advisory services across the Asia-Pacific region. This strategic move combines Hotelivate's strong expertise in hospitality with Savills' extensive real estate platform, creating the Hotelivate-Savills brand. According to Martin Fidden, CEO of Savills Asia Pacific (ex-Greater China), this acquisition accelerates the company's plan to enhance its hospitality capabilities globally. Although Savills did not disclose the investment amount, Hotelivate is recognized for its dominant market share in India, estimated at 55%, with plans to increase its revenue from international markets from 20-25% to potentially 90%. The merger is expected to provide Hotelivate access to Savills' global network, which spans over 70 countries. The collaboration aims to serve institutional investors more effectively, as noted by Manav Thadani, founder-chairman of Hotelivate, who highlighted the growing demand from major players in the sector. With heightened deal activity in the hospitality space, which saw $51.6 billion in mergers and acquisitions in 2025, the partnership positions both companies to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the market.
