“I’m very excited about being part of future management opportunities that will be available in the ever-expanding hospitality industry,” Anthony said. He added “Astudo will focus on small and mid-sized properties with 30 to 100 rooms and full-service hotels in Thailand and Asia. We felt that a lot of local owners would like to have a professional management company, without the large overheads and demands of international chains. Being based in Thailand we can achieve excellent profitability for local resort owners, with flexible and personal service not offered be larger chains. Being a hotel owner as well we know what is important to the owner, and how best to achieve the owners’ objectives.”
