Project Date: September 2025 – April 2026
Positioning, refurbishment and operational advisory for a Mauritian business hotel, extended to group-level revenue management across the Ninety-Six portfolio.
The Brief
Ninety-Six Hotel Group appointed InnSight Advisory to help with a detailed profit and product improvement plan, and shape the next phase of development for Hennessy Park Hotel in Ebene, Mauritius. The questions were the ones every owner of a maturing asset eventually faces: where the property should sit in its market, what refurbishment priorities should actually be, look like and cost, which operational priorities carry the most commercial weight, and what the business is genuinely capable of producing. Group management wanted an independent read rather than a confirmation of any internal work.
The Work
At property level we worked with the Group on future positioning for Hennessy Park, refurbishment opportunities and the operating priorities that would follow from them, the guest experiences the repositioned hotel would need to deliver, reworked ten-year management and owner financial improvement forecasts, owner returns, and the overall business potential of the asset. The work was structured with CAPEX scenarios offered, to give management a framework for their own decision-making rather than a single recommendation to accept or reject.
At Ninety-Six Group level the engagement extended into revenue management improvement across the portfolio, covering segmentation, pricing, commercial performance and the design of a more structured revenue strategy for the hotels.
