• Rosewood Hotel Group: Global luxury hotel group operating heritage and resort properties at premium ADR levels. Comparable as a competitor for ultra-high-net-worth leisure travellers and as a benchmark for luxury F&B-driven revenue models.

Others

• Small Luxury Hotels of the World: Global membership and distribution organisation for independent luxury hotels. Comparable as an ecosystem partner (ALH is a member via Hotel Excelsior) and as a distribution channel shaping demand for luxury independent properties.

Regional players

• Hilton Imperial Dubrovnik: International luxury-branded hotel operating in the same Dubrovnik micro-market. Comparable as a competing luxury inventory base competing for the same corporate and leisure demand in the city.

• Libertas Rixos (Hotel Argosy): International luxury-branded hotel in Dubrovnik offering comparable five-star accommodation and MICE facilities. Competes for the same corporate event and luxury leisure business in the local market.
