Testimonials

"It is always a pleasure to use HVS on the various assignments that I'm involved in. Their methodology and openness to 'think outside the box' is appreciated and makes the briefing and deliverable process more timely and comprehensive. I was asked good questions of clarification, in order to generate the most accurate potential scenarios." – Stephen Darling, Stephen Darling Hospitality Consulting

"HVS was transparent, on time, and provided insights into valuation criteria with great value for service." – Bill Pigden, Canada ICI Capital

"Carrie's and Jason's hospitality market expertise and proactive interactions have been a great help in planning our hotel development strategy. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others." – Andrew Boblin, PBA Land Development

"HVS was prompt in providing us the necessary insight, market intelligence, and background information for making an educated decision in proceeding with our hotel project. At the same time, their valuable information stopped us from proceeding with another hotel project in another city. HVS would be the first go-to stop for all hotel projects." – Babu Kadiyala, Berezan Management

"We recently engaged HVS to carry out a valuation exercise for a hotel in Whistler. We found them to be professional, detailed and meticulous. They have a strong research team and network. Their report was of a high standard that met our needs. Their knowledge of the subject matter is excellent and up to date. We have no hesitation to recommend them for any future hotel consultancy and valuation exercise." – James Tan Keen Meng, Raine & Horne International Zaki + Partners Sdn Bhd

"HVS always provides us with up-to-date market area information and a deep-rooted analysis for all our proposed hotel developments and existing properties, and delivers this information a timely, detailed, bankable report. The client services and attention to detail provided by HVS with each project they engage us on remain unmatched." – Aaron Laurie, Pomeroy Lodging

"HVS experts are very professional and provide accurate market information. All information given in the appraisal is accurate, so it is easy for financial institution to finance hotels. We will surely use HVS services in the future and recommend to other hoteliers." – Hero Parikh (Quality Inn Kamloops), RSRSM Holdings Inc.

"Jason and the HVS team exceeded expectations for our project. They are very knowledgeable about the hotel industry and extremely resourceful in getting data and information to better understand a hotel market." – Juan Duran, Choice Hotels International

"We are very happy working with HVS; the staff are professional and the reports are precise. We gained confidence in our due diligence process with HVS's valuable input and insight on hotel business." – Joanna Kwan, Reliance Properties
