Hotel lenders are lenders which lend money to hotels and hotel chains to perform maintenance, renovate, and even build new hotels.
How hotel lenders determine their ability to lend money to a hotel varies from lender to lender but there are certain factors which apply to most lenders. Some of the most common factors include the following:
1. Most
commercial lenders will require the hotel to have a solid history of paying back any prior loans which it has taken out. Some
commercial lenders will work with a hotel which has no prior loan history but require the hotel to pay a higher interest rate. This makes up somewhat for the risk factor
commercial lenders have when lending money.

2. When commercial lenders are looking to make a
business loan to a hotel they will often look at the hotels revenue history. Hotels with little to no history can get a
business loan but usually at higher interest rates. Hotels with a strong revenue history which has shown a consistent profit can often get a business loan at a lower interest rate.

Many hotels choose to use brokers when they are looking to get loans. This is because brokers will often know how hotel lenders decide their willingness to make a loan and what kind of terms to use based on the circumstances. This allows them to focus in on specific lenders who will work more appropriately for the hotels specific needs.
