Hotel Director: Tycoon Manager

ONE GROUP,

MANY CITIES

Grow a single save from one city into seven. Reach Brand Tier 3 and the world opens up: take your London group to Paris, Tokyo or New York with your cash, brand, loans and art behind you. Each city runs its own market, rivals, events and seasons, and you switch between them with a tap.

Opening abroad costs real money, every city needs a regional office, and guests take time to learn the new name in town.

SEVEN CITIES,

SEVEN GAMES

London is where the empire begins. New York has bigger rooms and bigger debt. Paris has old money and thin margins. Tokyo's seasons are short and violent. Copenhagen's winters are long and its wages high. Barcelona issues no new licences in its centre. And in Singapore, every site is sold by government tender.

(New York, Paris, Tokyo, Copenhagen, Barcelona and Singapore are optional city packs.)

RUN A REAL BUSINESS

Wages, supplies, energy, business rates, insurance, upkeep, loan repayments and tax. Every line is real and every decision has a consequence. Your weekly report shows what came in, what each cost took, and what was left. A hotel can be profitable on paper and still run out of cash — three weeks in the red ends the game.

BUY,

LEASE AND BUILD

Lease your first hotel, buy the next on a mortgage, take over a struggling rival, or brief a broker to find exactly what you want. With the Building Permit, buy land and build hotels to your own design — rooms, tier, star rating, facilities and room mix.

HIRE AND LEAD YOUR TEAM

Receptionists, housekeepers, chefs, concierges, managers and more. Your star rating sets who you need. Underpay them and they walk; understaff a five-star hotel and your reputation goes with them.

FINANCE YOUR GROWTH

Business loans, mortgages and development finance, at rates that move with the economy. Progressive corporation tax, shown band by band. Borrow smart.

BID FOR THE CITY'S LANDMARKS

Close a year in the top tax band and the city invites you to tender. Bid for historic buildings to convert to your own design, or fight rival groups at auction for grand hotels already trading. (Building Permit.)

COMPETE WITH RIVAL GROUPS

Every district is full of independent hotels, and named rival groups expand, buy each other out and bid against you for the best sites. Climb the leaderboard — or buy your rivals outright.

RIDE THE ECONOMY

Fashion weeks, marathons, sakura season and the Grand Prix fill your hotels. Strikes, inflation, energy crises and recessions empty them. No two playthroughs are the same.

DELEGATE AS YOU SCALE

Local managers, department contracts, a head office and supplier deals take work off your desk — at a price. Collect art for your hotels, run marketing campaigns, and decide how hands-on to be.

BUILT FOR PLAYERS WHO LIKE THE NUMBERS

No cartoon graphics, no idle mechanics. A clean, data-forward design for players who enjoy reading a P&L and knowing exactly what it means.
