The Altus Hospitality Story

Lifestyle Hotel and F&B Experiences

Altus Hospitality is a premier hotel management company specializing in lifestyle-driven hospitality. We bring hotel concepts to life with purpose and precision, shaping every detail from the ground up. From immersive design and elevated service to vibrant, experience-led restaurants and bars, we craft moments that resonate deeply with today’s travelers. Every touchpoint is designed to enhance the guest journey and drive long-term value for our partners.

Altus Hospitality was born from the shared vision of Masterworks Development, known for having deep expertise in real estate strategy and investment, and Club Quarters Hotels, known for innovation in brand creation and hotel operations —two companies that have helped shape the modern hospitality landscape. Together, Altus Hospitality was launched to focus exclusively on lifestyle hotels and F&B, where creativity, performance, and emotional connection meet. For owners and investors seeking more than just operational efficiency, Altus offers a rare opportunity to partner with a management company that blends commercial expertise with heart and intention.
