Upscale Property Group

Hotel Brand Conversion & Rebranding Services

Property-specific planning for conversion scopes, owner and brand coordination, procurement, construction phasing, punch lists, and closeout.

Brand Conversion Planning for Hotel Owners

Changing your hotel's flag is one of the most complex renovation projects an owner can undertake. Every brand has its own Property Improvement Plan requirements, design standards, and approval processes — and the clock starts ticking the moment you sign your franchise agreement.

Upscale Property Group supports hotel brand conversions and rebranding projects. We review the property-specific PIP, approved drawings, finish schedules, and owner-designated brand contacts. Requirements and substitutions are documented for the individual project rather than assumed from another property.

From initial brand assessment through final brand inspection, we manage every phase of your conversion so you can focus on operations and your opening date.

What's Included in a Brand Conversion

Every scope item your new brand requires — managed by one experienced team.

Brand Assessment & PIP Review

We review your incoming brand's PIP requirements against your property's current condition and produce a detailed scope-of-work and budget before you commit.

FF&E Procurement & Installation

Brand-approved furniture, fixtures, and equipment sourced, procured, and installed to exact brand specifications — on schedule and within budget.

Guestroom & Suite Renovation

Full guestroom transformations including flooring, wall finishes, millwork, lighting, and soft goods — all aligned to the incoming brand's design standards.

Public Space & Lobby Conversion

Lobby, breakfast area, fitness center, pool, and all public-facing spaces redesigned and built to meet the new brand's prototype requirements.

Exterior Rebranding & Signage

Façade updates, porte-cochère modifications, exterior paint, and full signage replacement coordinated with brand-approved vendors.

Brand Inspection Coordination

We prepare your property for the brand's final inspection, coordinate punch-list resolution, and stay on-site until you receive your approval letter.

Our Brand Conversion Process

A proven six-step approach from initial assessment to brand approval letter.

Step 1

Brand Assessment

We review the incoming brand's PIP, walk the property, and document the full gap between current condition and brand requirements.

Step 2

Scope & Budget

A detailed scope of work and fixed-price budget is delivered so you know exactly what the conversion will cost before work begins.

Step 3

Brand Coordination

We work directly with the brand's PIP coordinator to get your plans approved and keep the project aligned with brand standards throughout.

Step 4

Phased Construction

Work is sequenced to minimize room-night displacement, keeping your hotel operational and revenue flowing during the conversion.

Step 5

Quality Control

Every completed area is inspected against brand standards before we move to the next phase — no surprises at the final brand walk.

Step 6

Brand Approval

We coordinate the final brand inspection, resolve any punch-list items on the spot, and deliver your approval documentation.
