Hotels in Leva has announced ambitious expansion plans to add 75 new properties to its portfolio by 2032. Looking at markets such as Saudi Arabia, Doha and Egypt, Leva said the region is lacking “affordable luxury real estate”.

The group currently has five properties in MEA. These include the flagship Leva Hotel Mayaza Center in Dubai; Safeer Continental by Leva and Safeer Plaza Ekono by Leva in Muscat; Emin Pasha Hotel & Residences by Leva in Uganda; and Leva Bale Mountain Lodge in Ethiopia.

Leva Hotels business model

Leva Hotels was built out of the group as a hospitality group focused on offering investors maximum returns. Investors can either partner with Leva Hotels in the construction of a new property or work with them to remodel an existing property with subtle design changes and add elements of the Leva brand that are tailored to the owner’s budget rather than a costly design change.

Another feature that prioritizes the return on investment are tight and structured lean personnel models. Owners are also given the opportunity to conceptualize and run all of the F&B operations to meet owner and branding requirements.

JS Anand, founder and CEO of LEVA Hotels & Resorts explains: “Our processes are carefully designed to offer our guests consistent service with added value and practical results for our stakeholders and hotel owners. We pride ourselves on what we’ve built with a thought process geared towards low investment, simpler remodeling or new build, and competitive and logical fees. “

He continued, “Our growth is not in acquiring management assets at any cost for the brand, but understanding that we can deliver results because that is important to the hotel owner. And for us, LEVA’s reputation remains our priority as it defines us as a results-oriented and dynamic out-of-the-box operator. Owners have to recognize how the industry has developed in the current time. “
