ABOUT PACO PADOAN CONSULT

RESUME
As an experienced hotel consultant and founder of Pajama Hotels in Italy, an innovative white-label operating model for boutique hotels, I combine entrepreneurial expertise with in-depth industry knowledge. In leadership roles such as Cluster Director of Business Development at Hilton Hotels Austria and Commercial Head at Kerten Hospitality, I have demonstrated how strategic management and operational excellence drive sustainable results.
I optimize operational processes, enhance efficiency, and maximize profits—from asset management to new openings and acquisitions. With PACO Padoan Consulting, I provide tailor-made solutions that bring your vision to life and ensure long-term success. Your project deserves expertise and passion.
Performance Optimization for Hotel Chains
With my expertise, I have supported an international hotel chain in optimizing its operational processes. By implementing data-driven strategies and tailor-made management solutions, I significantly improved overall hotel performance. This resulted in measurable revenue and profit growth as well as enhanced ratings on online platforms. (Hilton Hotels in Austria, Thailand, and Malaysia).
Restructuring and interim management of luxury hotels in Italy
I had the pleasure of overseeing two renowned five-star hotels in Venice during an interim management solution. During this period, I supported the owners in the closure process, preparing the properties for upcoming renovations. Despite the transition phase, the hotels achieved remarkable revenue growth, allowing them to enter the renovation phase with strong financial results. (Palazzo Bauer Grünwald – Venice, Hotel & Palace Bonvecchiati – Venice).
Establishment of an Operating Company in Italy
With Pajama Hotels I have put my years of experience into action. Starting with a sales mandate, no interested parties were found for an acceptable deal. The solution was to take the helm myself and found an operating company.
Pajama Hotel srl. preserves the old charm while modernising the business with cutting-edge technology. We enhance the guest experience, optimise profitability and preserve the character of the property. Flexible lease and purchase options, including rent credits for purchase and transparent buy-to-let agreements, allow owners to maximise value while we take care of day-to-day operations. Tradition meets innovation for exceptional hospitality.
