+## Multi-branded Hotels
+
+Notes on [[penner_2013_hotel-design#Chapter 5 Multi-branded Hotels]]:
+
+Multi-branded hotels first appeared
+as separate buildings on a shared parcel
+with shared amenity spaces,
+then later as a single building.
+
+### Critique of Listed Advantages of Multi-branded Hotels
+
+By my reading,
+the only _inherent_ advantage of multi-branded hotels
+is the shared investment.
+
+Many of those listed in the text break down
+when considered in comparison to a single-brand hotel
+of size equal to the multi-brand in question.
+
+> * Meeting space becomes more cost-effective.
+>    A ballroom might not be feasible to build and operate for one hotel alone
+>    but when shared by two, it becomes viable.
+
+I suppose this makes sense if compared to the case
+that the parcel was split between the two brands
+and each built entirely separate facilities adjacent to each other,
+but that just doesn't seem realistic.
+
+Or maybe you're a hotel brand exec
+deciding on the next construction project
+and you really need another ballroom
+but your budget for construction wouldn't normally allow it.
