When it comes to planned hotels, timing is everything. For all of you suppliers out there, the hotel planning phase offers a unique window to make meaningful connections and position your products before a project moves into construction. At THP, our database tracks upcoming hotel projects across all stages—from the first vision to complete and open—but it’s during the planning phase that opportunities really take off.
In the hotel planning phase, architects, developers, and owners are still shaping the hotel’s overall look, design, and amenities. This is when decisions about furniture, fixtures, technology, and other supplier products are being discussed and finalized. By engaging early, you can influence specifications and ensure your products are considered before the project moves into procurement and construction.
Our database allows you to identify these projects by location, brand, star rating, and other key filters. Whether it’s a boutique hotel or a large-scale resort, understanding a project in its early stages can be the difference between being chosen or left out.
One exciting example from our database is Hotel Veerner Höfe, a 4-star development currently in the planning phase in Germany. Scheduled to open in 2029, this 80-room property spans a 7,500-square-meter area.
The project features three main buildings with modern brick facades designed to accommodate multiple uses: living spaces, retail, commercial areas, dining venues, and a planned accommodation facility. With such a versatile layout, there will be numerous opportunities for suppliers of furniture, lighting, kitchen equipment, and more to become involved before construction begins.
What makes it even more valuable for you is that our database provides direct contact details for the key players, making it easier to reach the right decision-makers at the right time. For example, this entry in our database contains contact details for the project’s architect, developer, and investor/owner.
Engaging with hotels in the planning phase offers several advantages:
Influence design decisions: Your products can be chosen before budgets are finalized.
Build relationships: Early contact with project managers and decision-makers can lead to long-term partnerships.
Position your brand: Getting on the radar early increases the likelihood of being included in procurement lists.
With our THP database, you can search for hotel projects in Germany and filter specifically for those in the planning phase. This helps you take a strategic approach to outreach and business development.
Planned hotels are more than just future openings—they're opportunities. The hotel planning phase is the ideal time to connect, present your products, and influence specifications. Projects like Hotel Veerner Höfe demonstrate the diversity and scale of opportunities available in Germany and beyond. By taking advantage of our database and acting early, you can position yourself ahead of the competition and become a part of a hotel’s story from day one.
