A strategic partnership with Mata Capital

February 2026

Partnership

Future-Proof Real Estate: For contractors and developers, building a Nellie hotel is more than just a standard project. It is a partnership based on a modular vision, sustainable materials, and an aesthetic designed to stand the test of time.

The Foundation of a New Industry Leader

The launch of Nellie marks the beginning of a formidable strategic partnership between Mata Capital and a team of seasoned hospitality pioneers. With Mata Capital’s extensive €2.4 billion assets under management providing a robust financial engine, and the founding team’s track record—having scaled global icons like citizenM and Spaces—the foundation is set for an ambitious pan-European rollout. This partnership is built on a shared conviction: the hospitality landscape has a glaring void when it comes to high-quality, lifestyle-oriented group accommodations. We are not just launching a hotel; we are institutionalizing a neglected asset class.


Unlocking Value in Gateway Cities

Our expansion strategy is laser-focused on Europe’s "gateway cities," where the demand for group-centric lodging consistently outstrips the current supply. For our investment partners, this represents a unique entry point into an untapped market segment characterized by high yield potential and significant operational resilience.

By combining institutional financial rigor with entrepreneurial agility, Nellie and Mata Capital are uniquely positioned to transform urban real estate into high-performing hospitality assets. We provide a vertically integrated platform—combining brand, development, and operations—that mitigates risk while maximizing long-term capital appreciation for our stakeholders across the continent.
