Savills has acquired a majority interest in Hotelivate, forming a unified platform, Hotelivate-Savills, to strengthen hospitality advisory capabilities across Asia Pacific.

The new entity will operate under Hotelivate’s existing leadership while leveraging Savills’ global network across more than 70 countries. The partnership combines Hotelivate’s sector expertise with Savills’ capabilities in capital markets, transactions, valuations and cross-border advisory.

The move comes amid growing momentum in the hospitality sector across APAC, driven by strong operating performance, rising cross-border investments and increasing demand for integrated advisory platforms.

Martin Fidden, CEO, Savills Asia Pacific, said: “South Asia is a priority market for Savills in APAC, and this acquisition reflects our strong commitment to its long-term growth… Our continued investments position us well to expand into specialist areas like hospitality advisory.”

Anurag Mathur, CEO, Savills India, added: “This marks an important step in the evolution of Savills in India… this investment strengthens our offer and enables us to deliver deeper, more integrated advisory services.”

Manav Thadani, Founder & Chairman, Hotelivate, said: “This investment by Savills enables us to scale that platform in a more institutional manner… while preserving the sector depth that defines our firm.”

Hotelivate will continue operating across its offices in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangkok, Dubai, Jakarta and Singapore, now with expanded access to Savills’ regional and global platform.
