Hotel Construction & Renovation Services

Hotel Construction Services (HCS) is a hospitality-focused general contractor with over 18 years of experience building and renovating hotels across the Northeast. Our team has completed more than 80 hotel projects and renovated over 8,200 guest rooms for property owners, management companies, and franchise operators throughout Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island.

We work exclusively in hospitality construction. This focus means our crews understand guest room configurations, brand requirements, and the operational realities of working in occupied properties. When you work with HCS, you get a team that has done this work before—on properties like yours, for brands you work with, in markets you operate in.

What We Do

HCS provides construction and renovation services for hotels at every stage—from ground-up development to ongoing property improvements.

New Hotel Construction

We build select-service, extended-stay, and full-service hotel properties from site preparation through final inspections. Our construction team manages all phases including structural work, MEP systems, interior finishes, and FF&E coordination.

Hotel Renovation

We specialize in renovating hotels while they remain open for business. Our phased approach takes floors or sections offline sequentially, allowing properties to maintain occupancy and revenue throughout construction. We handle everything from soft goods refreshes to full gut renovations.

PIP & Brand Compliance

We complete Property Improvement Plan upgrades on schedule to meet franchise deadlines. Our team maintains current knowledge of design and construction requirements for major hotel brands, which means fewer revision cycles and faster brand approval.

Construction Management

For owners who need oversight without direct construction services, we provide project management from planning through handover—coordinating architects, engineers, subcontractors, and inspectors to keep projects on track.

Brands We Work With

HCS has completed projects for properties across major hospitality brands. Our experience with brand-specific design standards and PIP requirements allows us to deliver work that passes franchise inspections without costly rework.

  • Marriott: Courtyard, Residence Inn, Fairfield Inn
  • Hilton: Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites, Home2 Suites
  • IHG: Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express
  • Choice Hotels: Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality Inn
  • Best Western: Best Western, Best Western Plus

We follow brand specifications from project start, not as an afterthought. This approach prevents the delays and change orders that occur when contractors learn brand requirements during construction.

How We Work

Every HCS project follows a structured process developed over 18 years of hospitality construction.

Site Assessment
Our team evaluates existing conditions, documents current systems, and identifies challenges before developing scope and pricing. For renovations, this assessment reveals hidden conditions that affect budgets and schedules.
