A RELATIONSHIP-FIRST MINDSET | Since 1985, Concord Hospitality has maintained an unparalleled standard of excellence across all capabilities as hotel developer, owner and operator, providing dedicated hotel management services to both full-service and upscale select-service properties. Together with the non-negotiables of hard work, integrity and transparency, we apply a relationship-first mentality to every project. |

Each property’s unique atmosphere of character, culture and personality is reflected in every design, management and procurement choice. Our soft brand collection of hotels shares the same advantages of their powerful brand counterparts, but our properties are highly distinguishable by their atmosphere, not just their name. We have approved operator status with Marriott International, Hilton Hotels Corp., Hyatt Hotels Corp., Choice Hotels International and IHG. These partner/brand relationships are built on steadfast relationships, recognizable lifestyle features, and top-quality appointments. |
SIMPLY PUT, THERE'S NOTHING IN THE INDUSTRY WE DON'T DO. | There’s nothing in our relationships we won’t uphold. It’s been our promise to you since our President and CEO, Mark G. Laport, founded the company in 1985. And it remains true today. |
CORNERSTONES A Culture Built on Quality, Integrity, Community, Profitability and Fun |
Excellence in operational execution is a promise we confidently make, knowing that our cornerstones form the solid foundation of every relationship, every project, every procurement. As a private company with over 35 years of experience in operating premium branded hotels in all economic cycles and markets throughout North America, Concord Hospitality has been able to quickly adapt to changing business environments because of these steadfast practices. |

FUN Our employees are our biggest asset, and in order to operate at the top, we have to attract and retain the top talent in the industry. We do that simply by making work fun! We provide a rewarding environment, one in which our employees enjoy immediate and personalized feedback, opportunities for learning and growth, and recognition for individual and team contributions. We have celebration programs and associate-focused processes in place as well as Associate Advisory Councils at each hotel to promote an open, transparent work environment where all team members have a voice to make a meaningful impact on the company and its direction. |
