01 / About

Creating a sense of belonging.

We foster environments where every guest and team member feels a deep sense of belonging. By nurturing a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, we create meaningful connections and lasting memories for all.

As a full turnkey hospitality management company, ROW X brings that philosophy to every property we take on. We step in for owners, manage the transition from the prior operator, and handle every stage from repositioning, design and construction to opening and ongoing operations, with high end accommodations, smart technology and eco friendly practices.

02 / How We're Different

Redefining the process.
Vertical integration.

Vertical integration: a strategy that streamlines operations by taking direct ownership of each stage of production rather than relying on outside contractors or suppliers.

At ROW X, we own the entire process. It is what makes us truly turnkey. Six disciplines that most operators outsource all live under one roof, which means tighter quality, faster timelines, lower cost and a guest experience that feels seamless from booking to checkout.

01

Hotel Operations

A more efficient, faster moving alternative to legacy luxury operators. We keep fees low by design, with one goal behind every decision: stronger profitability for owners and greater accessibility for travelers.

02

Revenue and Marketing

A proprietary platform optimizes distribution and puts every property in front of quality, ready to book audiences. Omnichannel marketing drives direct bookings and reduces reliance on OTAs, while a dynamic pricing engine updates rates by the hour to reflect live demand and competitor activity.

03

Food and Beverage

With our culinary team in house, we deliver exceptional dining and control cost at the same time. Keeping that expertise internal holds fees competitive while raising the quality of every plate.

04

Interior Design

Our design team is the heart of every project. Not only experts but tastemakers, setting the standard for sophisticated, location driven aesthetics across hospitality.

05

Development and Brand

Development ensures each property meets our standards for luxury and sustainability, while brand campaigns are built around the character and local charm of each location, driving engagement and recognition.

06

Construction Management

Managing construction ourselves gives us full control of quality, timeline and cost. We integrate luxury and sustainability into every property while preserving the character of its location.

03 / Why Owners Choose ROW X

What very few management companies can offer.

Thanks to our vertical integration, covering hotel operations, F&B, design and construction, we deliver luxury products to market faster, ensuring seamless ownership and exceptional profitability for all hotel owners.

For the owner
Typical outsourced model
ROW X
Accountability

Separate contracts with an operator, designer, F&B group, agency and contractor, each blaming the other

One team, one agreement, one point of accountability

Speed to market

Months lost coordinating vendors, bids and handoffs

Design, build and operations planned together from day one

Cost

Every outside firm adds its own fee and markup

Fees kept low by design, with no layered markups

Quality

Brand standards diluted across many hands

The same people who design the experience deliver it

Revenue

Heavy reliance on OTAs and commissions

Direct booking engine and hourly dynamic pricing

Food and Beverage

A third party restaurant operator takes the margin

In house culinary team keeps the margin at the property

04 / Fees

Paid when your hotel performs.

A simple, owner-aligned structure. A low base fee covers the work of running the hotel. The rest is earned only on profit we add above a baseline agreed with you up front.

01

2% base fee

A base management fee of 2%, kept low by design because operations, revenue, F&B, design and construction are all in house.

02

12% of profit above baseline

We earn an incentive fee of 12% only on profit above the baseline we agree together. If we do not add profit, we do not earn it.

03

12-month first term

A 12-month first term, then the agreement continues with 90 days’ notice. No long lock-in.

04

Who it is for

Owner-operated independent hotels with roughly $5M or more in annual revenue, plus the lenders and investors behind them.

09 / About Rhys

Rhys O'Connell, Chief Executive Officer.

Rhys leads ROW X from Miami, bringing 27 years in luxury hospitality to owners who want a hands-on operator instead of a distant brand.

His focus is owner-operated independent hotels: stepping in, running the property with an in-house team, and being paid mainly on the profit added above baseline.

10 / Broker Referrals

Up to $50,000 per referral.

Hotel brokers who introduce an owner that signs a management agreement with ROW X earn a referral fee of up to $50,000. You keep the relationship; we handle the operations.

Best fit: owner-operated independent hotels with roughly $5M or more in revenue, including owners who want out of day to day operations, are unhappy with their current operator, or are preparing to sell.
