Carmen Almos
ATLANTA, GA —Industry veteran Carmen Almos has launched Ashburton Hospitality, a full-service consultancy firm focused on asset management.
The firm began initial operations in 2023 and already has amassed
a portfolio that includes nine hotels across brands such as Hilton, Marriott
and IHG.
“As a female- and minority-founded business whose leadership brings ownership
and operational experience to the table, Ashburton brings its own, unique
perspective to asset management,” Almos said.
"We look forward to improving these
numbers as we further implement our proprietary strategies and sharing similar
results with new clients.”
“It is
important to me to help create acquisition opportunities that pave a pathway to
women and minorities within the sector,” Almos added.
In addition to Ashburton’s advisory services, the firm is actively pursuing
acquisition opportunities to grow the portfolio. With headquarters in
Atlanta, Ga., the firm provides services throughout the country with a
particular focus on select- and limited-service hotels along the Eastern
Seaboard.
Prior
to founding Ashburton, Almos was senior vice president of strategic operations
for Mission Hill Hospitality.
