Hotel Modeling Courses
I just accepted a role as an analyst at a hospitality-focused REPE shop. I have solid modeling skills and experience in CRE but want to learn more about hotels. Does anyone have any recommended courses?
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some recommendations for enhancing your hotel modeling skills:
WSO Elite Modeling Package: This package includes courses like Financial Statement Modeling, Valuation Modeling, and M&A Modeling, which can be foundational for understanding hospitality-focused real estate private equity (REPE). While not hotel-specific, these courses provide a strong base for advanced modeling.
Adventures in CRE: This platform is often recommended for specialized real estate modeling, including hospitality. They offer detailed courses and templates tailored to various CRE asset classes, including hotels.
Justin Kivel's Courses (Break Into CRE): Justin Kivel's courses on Udemy are highly regarded for their practical approach to CRE modeling. While not exclusively hotel-focused, they cover acquisition and development modeling, which can be applied to hospitality assets.
REFM (Real Estate Financial Modeling): REFM offers advanced modeling courses, including hotel-specific modules. However, some users have noted that their materials can be overwhelming for beginners, so it might be better suited for those with solid foundational skills.
Cornell Hotel School Online Programs: Cornell University offers hospitality-focused financial modeling and real estate courses. These are highly specialized and well-regarded in the industry.
Hospitality-Specific Case Studies: If you're looking for hands-on practice, seek out case studies or templates specific to hotel acquisitions, development, and operations. These can often be found on platforms like WSO or through networking with industry professionals.
If you're looking for a mix of foundational and specialized knowledge, starting with the WSO Elite Modeling Package and supplementing it with hospitality-specific courses like Adventures in CRE or Cornell's programs would be a strong approach.

Congratulations on the position. The hotel modeling course offered by "Adventures in CRE" might be of interest to you. They have some excellent hospitality resources that are quite useful. If you are already familiar with modeling and simply want to learn more about hotels, I've heard positive things about the hotel modules from "Break Into CRE".
Thank u!!
