About Us

Our Story

Built to create real value, not just chase deals.

1907 Capital was founded on a simple belief: the best lodging assets deserve more than passive ownership. They need vision, alignment, and execution to thrive for decades. We exist to acquire distinctive hotels, reposition them thoughtfully, and operate them with care creating long-term value for our investors, our partners, and the communities we invest in.

Our Philosophy

Timeless hotels, built on talent.

We believe the true long-term value of a hotel is determined by three things: Land. Bones. Talent.

Capital structures don’t create memories, people do.

We invest in the teams that deliver exceptional service, the vision that gives a place meaning, and the systems that sustain it. Because rooms don’t sell themselves, stories do.

Our Approach

Integrated by Design. Built for Results.

Most hotels today are operated by someone other than the owner. Brands franchise, managers manage, owners watch from a distance. The result? Fragmented responsibility, diluted results.

1907 integrates it all. We own the property, the operating model, the talent strategy, and the story that brings it to life. That means we don’t just underwrite upside – we create it.

Our Control
+ Partnership Focus

Flexible positions. Aligned incentives.

We favor control or significant influence because vision without execution is wasted. But we’re also pragmatic - partnering with owners who want to stay involved or solve for complexity together.

Every partnership is structured to align interests across capital, operations, teams, and guests. That’s the only way to generate true operational alpha.

Our Team

We are builders and operators at heart.

Our team combines capital, concept, and craft with an unwavering belief that excellence comes from alignment at every level.

  • From partners to housekeepers, everyone at 1907 shares in our success and stands behind our outcomes.

  • We build with clarity, measure what matters, and own our results, always.

Our Criteria

We're not passive capital.
We partner where we see room to create, not just capture, value.

We’re drawn to hotels that endure, places with character, potential, and a reason to exist 50 years from now. At 1907 Capital, we don’t chase trends. We seek assets where lasting value meets operational opportunity.

We look for:

  • 100 – 350 key hotels with scale to operate efficiently and stand out in their markets

  • Equity investments between $20 million and $100 million

  • Control or significant influence positions that allow us to align operations with vision

  • Architecturally or historically significant properties with a story to tell

  • Brand flexibility, with a preference for soft-branded or independent identities

  • Markets backed by durable, long-term demand drivers
