Step into one of the most intriguing and experience-driven niches in real estate at OCREIA’s June meeting: the **Boutique Hotel Panel**. Boutique hotels, known for their unique design, personalized guest experiences, and strong branding, have carved out a powerful space in the hospitality sector, often outperforming traditional hotels in both guest loyalty and profitability. But how do investors actually break into this space? And what does it take to operate successfully in today’s evolving travel and short-term rental landscape?
