Who runs this hotel?

Three different companies can sit behind one hotel. How this works

OperatorThe company responsible for the hotel's day-to-day operations — hiring and training staff, service, food and beverage, housekeeping and revenue management. It can be different from both the owner and the brand.
Highgate

Not the brand company — JW Marriott supplies the name; Highgate runs the hotel.

BrandThe name on the door. The brand company sets standards and supplies the reservation system and loyalty programme — but it does not always run the hotel itself.
