WHO
WE ARE

Pathfinder Hospitality (Previously Pathfinder Development) was founded in 2005 and currently manages 6 hotels in Texas with a 7th in the works. These hotels include Residence Inn by Marriott in Southwest Austin, Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Austin Arboretum, Staybridge Suites in Humble/Houston, Staybridge Suites in NASA/Clearlake, Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Houston, and Hampton Inn in Port Arthur. Our 7th incoming hotel will be the Aloft in Southwest Austin. Founded by Chirag Patel and Rahul Bahl, both believed that many large companies seem to lose sight of core values such as compassion, flexibility, human connection, and a sincere commitment to customer satisfaction.

Pathfinder Hospitality is committed to exceeding expectations when it comes to the hospitality industry and because of this commitment, Rahul and Chirag sought to build a small to mid-sized hospitality Development and Management firm with a family-like atmosphere which emphasizes the importance of adhering to these core values and is committed to a pursuit of excellence in the select-service/extended-stay segments.

Above all else, we know that a company without values isn’t a company at all. A commitment to ethics and honesty helps our business soar and our core values reflect each and every one of our team members.

1. Integrity – We honor our promises and fulfill our commitments.
2. Transparency – We openly share successes and failures. We are accountable in all our business practices.
3.  Innovation – We use creativity to turn the Ordinary into Extraordinary
4. Collaboration – Everyone’s thoughts and opinions are important.
5. Passion – We thrive because of our heartfelt commitment to unrivaled hospitality.
6. Empowerment – We learn both from our successes and from our failures and strive to evolve as we grow.
7. Accountability – We honor our commitments and each other with reliability and responsibility.
