AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Hodges Ward Elliott ("HWE"), the premier boutique real estate capital markets advisor, announces the fee-simple sale of the Hotel Van Zandt, a 319-room luxury lifestyle hotel, located at 605 Davis Street in downtown Austin, TX, within the city's popular Rainey Street District. The newer vintage investment is one of Austin's most popular boutique hotels and part of the renowned Kimpton network of international hospitality assets.

An HWE team led by Daniel Peek, Hotel Group President, John Bourret, Managing Director, Austin Brooks, Director, and David Auer, Vice President, advised the seller in the negotiations.

The AAA Four Diamond Hotel Van Zandt opened in November 2015 and is considered one of the top luxury boutique hotels in the country, winning numerous awards for design, service and experience, including being named the number one hotel in Texas several times.

"HWE conducted a very targeted campaign to market the sale of the Hotel Van Zandt.  The result was a competitive bid process with a variety of buyers, including REITs, private equity groups and family offices," said John Bourret, Hodges Ward Elliott. "After careful consideration, we identified a buyer making a strategic push into the Austin hotel market, and selected them for this much-admired asset."
