Robert Festinger is a commercial real estate and hospitality executive with more than 25 years of experience advising owners, investors, and operators across complex platforms. His background uniquely bridges both commercial real estate and hospitality operations — from leasing strategy, hotel revenue management, and food and beverage optimization to franchise structuring, operational turnarounds, and capital market positioning. He has led high-profile engagements including luxury hospitality assets in Washington DC, Miami Beach, and Chicago, as well as Coral Gables and Coconut Grove Class A office and retail portfolios across South Florida.

Through Festinger Advisors, clients gain direct access to senior-level expertise — not the junior teams typical at large brokerage firms. The firm combines decades of operational and transactional experience with custom AI infrastructure to deliver practical, execution-focused advisory across hospitality, office, mixed-use, and special situation assets in New York, Florida, Chicago, and Washington DC.
