OTO Development Grows Management Portfolio

September 3, 2020 | Management

OTO Development, part of The Johnson Group, is expanding its management portfolio with three additional hotels in a new market. The Spartanburg SC-based hospitality company develops and operates its own select-service and lifestyle hotels while also lending expertise to ownership groups ranging from publicly-traded REITs to private equity firms to high net worth individuals.

The most recent third-party management contract, signed earlier this month, represents OTO’s entry into the dynamic Orlando, Florida market.

“We appreciate the partnership we have with our third-party ownership groups, rooted in mutual respect and trust. The opportunity to manage additional hotels in a new market is a vote of confidence in our performance and ability to create real value for owners,” says Corry Oakes, President/CEO of OTO Development. “While COVID-19 may have temporarily changed the hotel industry in a meaningful way, what has not changed is our commitment to effective strategies and relentless pursuit of opportunities to grow revenue, market share and profitability at all of our hotels.”

With a scalable platform comprising technology, human resources, revenue management and ecommerce functions, OTO offers a return on investment that outperforms industry standards.

OTO’s latest additions to its managed portfolio include Hyatt Place across from Universal Resort^TM ,Hyatt House across from Universal Resort^TM, and Hyatt Place Orlando/Convention Center.
