Capstone Hotel Management, New Zealand’s leading and 100 per cent locally owned and operated white-label hotel management company, is celebrating ten years of remarkable growth. This milestone coincides with new strategic partnerships, property openings, and the establishment of a second office in Auckland.

In the last 12 months, Capstone has seen significant growth with the opening of three new properties under its management: Abstract Hotel & Residences Auckland, SOHO Hotel Auckland and Te Karaka Lodge, a rural retreat in Port Waikato. Capstone has also taken over management for renowned South Island properties including Queenstown’s Nugget Point Hotel, slated for a multimillion-dollar refurbishment, and The Portage Resort in the picturesque Marlborough Sounds.

Additionally, Capstone partnered with global hotel operators Choice Hotels & BWH Hotels to expand their lifestyle and boutique hotel brands in the New Zealand market. This surge in growth solidifies Capstone's reputation as the preferred choice for global hotel operators, developers and property owners seeking locally relevant management expertise and consulting services.

From humble beginnings managing regional properties to carving out our niche as one of New Zealand’s leading, independent white-label hotel management companies, our first decade has been phenomenal.

We are experiencing increasing demand from developers and owners for our flexible white-label management and consulting services, prompting us to expand our operations with a new Auckland office and six new hires to supplement our South Island Nelson office. We are excited by this opportunity and are on course to grow our portfolio over the coming years. 

Our core focus has always been on elevating each property’s individual brand while working behind the scenes to deliver exceptional value to owners and investors. Whether through full hotel management, consulting projects, or customised marketing, sales and distribution agreements, our experienced team tailors our approach to drive profitability for each asset.

I am immensely proud of what the Capstone team has accomplished over the past decade, fostering transparent and sustainable partnerships with owners, investors and industry colleagues. We are proud to contribute to the success of New Zealand’s hospitality and tourism industry and extend our gratitude to our property owners and partners for entrusting us with the management of their accommodation assets. We look forward to the next decade of success together. Clare Davies, Founder and Managing Director at Capstone Hotel Management
