At NorthPointe Hospitality, we have cultivated a high-performing team of industry leaders within a culture defined by agility, responsiveness, and excellence. Our leadership brings over four decades of combined expertise in hospitality management and development, drawn from the nation’s foremost franchise, construction, banking, and third-party management organizations.
We specialize in transforming distinctive, underperforming, and one-of-a-kind assets into market leaders. Whether it’s executing a meticulous restoration of a 109-year-old historic hotel, where no two of the 143 rooms shared the same dimensions, navigating the complexities of hurricane-resistant beachfront construction, or orchestrating high-touch catering for multiple Fortune 100 black-tie events during one of the world’s premier sporting occasions, we don’t just rise to the challenge—we create new levels of expectations by exceeding any prior levels of performance. At NorthPointe, being THE BEST is the expectation, not the exception.
ENDORSEMENTS
Don Farrell, Chief Cultivating Officer
Fresh Revenues
“In my world, I get to travel extensively and have met and worked with tens of thousands of hotel owners and operators. It gives me great pleasure in saying that Greg Winey is one of my top three favorite hoteliers and he got there because he is incredibly smart and incredibly driven. He not only has direct experience with almost any hotel situation, but he also stays current on trends, best practices, best technology and is an astute leader when you need a singular source of knowledge about almost anything that goes on in the hospitality arena. What makes Greg even more unique is that he has decided to manage a portfolio of hotels that is manageable, which is to say….. he won’t get too big to not pay attention to all the details that makes his company one of the best operators oi the business today. There are big operators, small operators and operators that are just the right size so he can really drive the most out of any hotel asset. Anyone in need of an operator for their unique hotel asset would serve themselves well by at least having a conversation with Greg on why he should be seriously considered as a true partner. I promise that the initial phone call alone will teach you a few things you never knew about maximizing your asset.”
Rick Schultz, Vice President of Operations
Hampton Inns and Homewood Suites
“Greg is extremely strong in the financial area and his dedication to the property and company was apparent through his hard work. I feel that any company would benefit from his extensive operational experience and knowledge.”
Benjamin Brunt, Principal

Kris Miller, President
Ackerman & Co.
“The team at NorthPointe Hospitality were outstanding partners the entire time they managed our Crowne Plaza project in North Augusta. From day one, we benefitted from their 40-plus years of expertise in hotel management. Their proven system balances the best guest services with effective cost management. While they’re committed to optimizing profits by implementing cost controls and using technology to run operations more efficiently, this was never done at the expense of a great guest experience. Their expertise allowed us to weather the challenges that followed the COVID outbreak, helping us navigate the downturn in demand and capitalize on the ensuing recovery in the hotel sector. We’re extremely grateful to the NorthPointe team. Thanks to their efforts, the project delivered strong returns to our investors despite opening the hotel just 12 months before the COVID shutdowns. We are actively looking for future opportunities to partner with NorthPointe Hospitality.”
Deborah Stone, President & Founder

I am very comfortable in recommending Greg for projects relating to the consultation of hotel operations and feel certain his efforts will prove invaluable to any owner, operator, franchisee, or franchise company.”

I would highly recommend Greg to anyone in need of improving operational performance or developing General Managers!”
