Hotel Val Hub.From operating evidence to valuation and review.
A governed hotel valuation operating platform. Connect property and P&L data, forecasts, DCF, CapEx and portfolio analysis with the work of valuers and senior reviewers.
Built and in external validation. Not yet commercialised.
Built around hotel valuation work.
For valuation and advisory teams, with applications for hotel investors, asset managers and operators.
Advisory & valuation firms
Connect operating evidence, forecasts, valuation and review within an engagement.
Investors & asset managers
Explore hotel performance, asset valuations and portfolio context.
Hotel groups & operators
Bring historical P&L and investment plans into a hotel valuation workflow.
From operating evidence to reviewed valuation.
A current DCF can exist before an asset is locked. Readiness, locking, approval and job completion are distinct states.

The data, calculations and review belong together.
Operating evidence
Properties and historical P&L underpin the valuation workspace.
Current calculations
Server-authoritative forecasts connect to DCF and CapEx valuation.
Review in context
Assignments, review status and a reviewer what-if sandbox support Senior Review.
Connected outputs
History, comparison and exports make valuation results available for further work.
Properties and P&L, ready for valuation.
A shared foundation for historical operating data and valuation work.
A structured operating-data workspace.
Property records connect hotel identity with historical operating P&L. The input grid supports multi-year data and USALI or IAS (USALI-Augmented) views.
P&L Import uses a deterministic, template-based process. Flex Export makes selected data available beyond the workspace. AI-assisted intake and mapping are a future direction.

Follow the assumptions into the valuation.
Connected forecasts, explicit yield derivation and valuation-specific investment plans.
Build the forecast from operating evidence.
The Projection Grid brings historical data and forecast years into one view. Base Year, CPI country, hold period and projection calendar provide the context for line-level assumptions.
Forecast approaches include Base Year, Hardcode and fee methodologies. The current forecast is calculated on the server and connects to the valuation.

Read the DCF and its derivation.
Subject Yield combines Market Base Yield with applicable signed adjustments. Exit Cap Rate starts from Subject Yield and adds the applicable exit adjustments.
Discount Rate starts from Subject Yield, adds Long-Term Growth and the applicable implied-rate adjustments. The DCF view shows value composition, acquisition costs and the CapEx deduction alongside the result.
Subject Yield + growth + adjustments → Discount Rate
Bring the investment plan into the valuation.
CapEx Valuation distinguishes the cost of works, payment timing, reserve funding and discounted valuation impact. Gross works cost is not the valuation deduction.
Works adopted from the property record form frozen copies in the valuation. The workspace shows what the reserve funds, what remains to fund and the resulting deduction used by the DCF.

From a hotel to its portfolio and market context.
Connect asset-level valuation with portfolio results and comparable operating performance.
Value the portfolio. Read the market alongside it.
Valuation Jobs organise the engagement and its Job Assets. Individual forecasts and DCF results connect to the portfolio summary shown above.
Market Performance defines a comparable market from historical annual P&Ls and calculates blended operating results on a consistent basis. Explore occupancy, ADR, RevPAR and GOP margin, with USALI and IAS presentations and POR, PAR or ratio views.
Job Asset Benchmarking is also implemented, bringing selected comparable operating evidence into the asset workflow.
Portfolio valuation · market evidence · asset benchmarking
Explore the detail behind the blended result.
Review trends across P&L years, performance ranges and market composition. Compare individual annual P&Ls with the selected market.
Add KPIs relevant to the question at hand. Electricity cost per occupied room is one example: a hotel operating-cost measure that can be explored through time alongside occupancy and ADR.
Selected P&Ls · configurable analytical KPIs
Keep valuation results available for review and comparison.
History and outputs remain part of the valuation workflow.
Compare valuations. Export the governed source.
Valuation History provides access to earlier valuations. Comparison reads selected valuations across dates or properties and calculates the subject, comparable and blended views. It does not copy or overwrite the comparable valuations.
Compare value, value per key, NOI and yield derivation. Generate native PDF and XLSX outputs from the governed valuation source, and use Flex Export for selected operating data.

Visible inputs. Distinct valuation steps.
The forecast, yield derivation, CapEx treatment and DCF result can be reviewed in their own context.
- Subject Yield starts from Market Base Yield and signed adjustments.
- Exit Cap Rate and Discount Rate have separate derivations.
- CapEx reflects timing and funding as well as works cost.
- DCF readiness is distinct from locking and approval.

Review is part of the working platform.
Assignments, access and valuation status support the work of valuers and senior reviewers.
Client-owned Microsoft tenant
Deployment is into the client's own Microsoft tenant, using Microsoft Power Pages and Dataverse.
Role-based access
Permissions govern access to the platform's records and workflows.
Senior Review
Implemented review workflows bring valuation assumptions and review status into the senior reviewer's workspace.
My Work and My Team
Dedicated workspaces organise assignments and team review activity.
Reviewer what-if
A reviewer sandbox supports exploration of alternative assumptions during review.
Distinct lifecycle states
Engine readiness, DCF readiness, Locked, Approved and Job Completed describe different stages. A current DCF can exist before locking.
Questions about the platform.
What is the product status?
Hotel Val Hub is built and in external validation. It is not yet commercialised. The screenshots on this page show the working product with demo data.
Does it support single assets and portfolios?
Yes. Jobs and Job Assets connect individual forecasts and DCF valuations with portfolio valuation.
Must an asset be locked before a DCF exists?
No. A current DCF can exist before locking. Engine readiness, DCF readiness, locking, approval and job completion are distinct states.
Are Market Performance and Senior Review implemented?
Yes. Market Performance, Job Asset Benchmarking, Senior Review, My Work, My Team and the reviewer what-if sandbox are implemented capabilities.
Does P&L Import use AI?
No. Current P&L Import is deterministic and template-based. AI-assisted intake and mapping are a future direction, with human review before data is persisted.
Where would the platform be deployed?
Into your organisation's own Microsoft tenant. The platform uses Microsoft Power Pages and Dataverse.
What can be exported?
Native PDF and XLSX valuation outputs are available, alongside Flex Export for selected operating data.
What is live today. What comes next.
Implemented capability and future direction are stated separately.
The governed valuation operating platform.
Properties and P&L, forecasts, DCF, CapEx, portfolio and market analysis, review, history, comparison and exports.
Built and in external validation. Not yet commercialised.
AI-assisted P&L intake and mapping.
A proposed next step for turning incoming P&L documents into structured mappings, with human review before persistence.
Not implemented today. Current P&L Import is deterministic and template-based.
Hotel operating detail belongs in the valuation.
Historical P&L, occupancy, room rates, operating costs and investment plans provide the context for hotel forecasts and valuation. Hotel Val Hub brings that work into a connected platform.
Developed by EMASES.
Hotel Val Hub is developed by EMASES, the Microsoft-native platform studio founded by Duc-Vinh Lai. EMASES designs, builds and operates governed B2B platforms for specialist business workflows.
The product reflects that approach in hotel valuation: structured operating data, connected calculations and review workflows. AI-assisted intake is a next direction, built on that foundation.
