Who We Are
Building Hospitality with Purpose
Since 1998, PHD Hotels has specialized in developing and managing premium Hilton and Marriott hotels throughout the Southeast. Headquartered in the Opelika-Auburn area of Alabama, our company takes a hands-on approach by managing only the hotels we develop. This focused strategy allows us to maintain exceptional quality, deliver outstanding guest experiences, support our team members, and maximize long-term value for our investment partners. With decades of experience and a proven track record, we continue to build hotels that strengthen communities and create lasting returns.

Our selective approach allows every project to receive the attention it deserves from development through daily operations.
Unlike many management companies, we oversee only the hotels we build. This hands-on philosophy enables us to maintain high operating standards, support our on-site teams, and deliver memorable guest experiences that contribute to sustainable financial performance.
