Hospitality Consulting

The secret to Hospitality Consulting’s success is our passion for finding the right solutions to wow clients and guests, bring destinations to life and help businesses thrive under complex market conditions. Our many years of experience in Switzerland and abroad boost your project’s chances of long-term success.

As a boutique consultancy, HC Hospitality Consulting Ltd has been working with its clients to raise the bar for national and international gastronomy, hotel and tourism projects for over 20 years. Depending on the client’s desired outcome, we can cover all aspects of the hospitality business, from strategy and concept planning to tendering and owner representation. Or we can focus on individual project phases and thereby provide a transparent basis for decision-making.

As a manager, CEO and board member of several leading companies, Peter Herzog is part of a network of influential industry leaders. He is passionate about developing tailored strategies and concepts to provide a solid foundation for success in the market. A highly experienced gastronomy and hospitality consultant, all aspects of Hospitality Consulting’s work are his bread and butter.

His specialisms include the development of real estate portfolios, auditing in the hospitality sector and market analyses for the gastronomy and hotel sectors.

Inspiration, cooperation and networking are crucial for the success of any corporate consulting project. Depending on the task, we may also involve experienced partners from our network in the process.
