Landingplace Suites caters to the growing demand for long-term stays by offering flexible accommodations of 30 nights or more with no leases, combining the comforts of home with the conveniences of a hotel. This Hotel News report found that the suites are designed more like furnished apartments, featuring kitchenettes and spacious layouts, and are supported by lifestyle-driven features like food trucks, community rooms, live music, and vibrant outdoor spaces that reflect the local neighborhood.
On the other hand, Landingplace Select is tailored for short-term, high-traffic stays. This select-service concept is engineered with streamlined operations in mind. Features include smart room design, pay-per-use housekeeping, and expanded grab-and-go food offerings, helping owners run lean operations without compromising guest satisfaction. Smart technology enables a seamless experience for travelers while lowering the labor burden for staff.
Owner First Focus with Smart Solutions
Landingplace Hotels is not just another franchisor—it is a model built by owners for owners. CEO and co-founder Jeremy Bratcher emphasized that the company was founded out of frustration with outdated and rigid brand systems that failed to adapt to modern needs. “We built Landingplace to close that gap,” he said, “with brands designed for flexibility, simplicity, and an owner-first approach.”
In a climate where more than $5.8 billion in U.S. hotel loans are set to mature in 2025—according to Matthews Real Estate Investment Services—Bratcher notes that properties face immense refinancing and renovation pressure. Landingplace aims to provide a practical path forward with conversion-friendly models, realistic PIP (Property Improvement Plan) standards, and asset repositioning strategies designed for profitability and scale.
Unlocking New Revenue Channels
Landingplace properties tap into overlooked demand by integrating their inventory into platforms like Apartments.com, Airbnb, Furnished Finder, and Zillow, reaching guests traditional hotels often miss. Guest engagement and revenue generation are amplified through strategic technology partnerships.
HotelKey powers property management, FLYR optimizes pricing through AI-driven revenue management, and Amadeus iHotelier handles full-channel distribution. Tools like Nonius, Yuvod streaming TV, Cvent, and The Guestbook rewards program help create a complete ecosystem that increases loyalty and boosts revenue per guest.
Jacob Amezcua, co-founder and president, shared, “As operators ourselves, we know the struggles firsthand. We’re showing it’s possible to run a more efficient, flexible hotel and deliver a better guest experience.”
Experienced Team and Target Markets
The leadership team brings more than three decades of combined industry experience. Bratcher’s background includes senior positions at IHG, Starwood, and MCR Hotels, while Amezcua has led projects at 3M, Experian, and in multifamily housing and hotel conversion. Supporting them is a robust executive team including Stacy Bedsole (brand and marketing), Glenn Miller (commercial strategy), John Kelly (franchise operations), Orlando McRae (design and construction), and Gus Stamoutsos (franchise development).
Development will prioritize urban and suburban locations with high business, university, and healthcare demand—markets where traditional brand saturation makes entry difficult and where Landingplace’s adaptable models can shine.
As the hotel industry continues to face margin pressures, labor shortages, and evolving guest expectations, Landingplace Hotels may well represent the future of franchising. By offering simplicity without sacrificing sophistication, and operational freedom without chaos, Landingplace provides a lifeline for independent hoteliers seeking to stay competitive in the midscale segment.
The company’s dual-brand strategy is poised to shake up the market, giving owners the tools to thrive while giving guests a more tailored and engaging stay experience. Its long-term potential lies in how effectively it balances cost-efficiency with customer satisfaction—two pillars that will define the next era of hospitality.
