Arbor Lodging

Real estate investment and hotel management

Overview

Arbor Lodging invests in hospitality and multifamily real estate and manages properties through two units: Arbor Lodging Partners (investments) and Arbor Lodging Management (operations). It uses direct equity in underperforming hotels and apartments, buys real estate–backed loans, and provides third-party hotel management, focusing on value-added improvements to boost performance. The company differentiates itself by integrating investment and hands-on operations, pursuing diverse, brand-anchored assets across the U.S. and Latin America, including ARLO Residential to convert properties into affordable multifamily housing. Its goal is to deliver steady, risk-adjusted returns for investors while expanding affordable housing options and maintaining strong asset performance.
