About HOTELkonzept — Boutique Hotel Consultancy
HOTELkonzept is a boutique hotel consultancy founded by Helmut Clemens and based in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. With over 150 years of combined team experience and advisory work spanning 1,200+ properties across more than 100 countries, HOTELkonzept specializes in concept development, revenue management, storytelling, and guest experience design for independent 4- and 5-star hotels.
In today’s globalised world of commodities, boutique hotels should act as catalysts for their natural environment and cultural heritage to engage with their guests and deliver their full revenue and profitability potential. Only a well-told story of terroir and authenticity ensures your hotel and restaurant becomes a destination to achieve that goal. We maximise your asset’s full potential by weaving that unique and authentic story.
Consistent storytelling is your key to success. It helps you to stand out from the crowd, to be sustainable while creating a unique and therefore communicable, desirable, and profitable hospitality product.
HOTELkonzept is your culture creator and place maker ensuring your boutique hotel and restaurant substantiates your true commitment to localness, to your cultural heritage and natural environment as we weave the yarn of your unique story into the entire hotel fabric.
Paired with decades of hospitality business acumen from around the globe we deliver value in designing hospitality concepts, putting them into workable business plans and bringing them to life.
Helmut Clemens — Founder & Managing Director
Helmut Clemens is a German-born hotelier with over 30 years of experience in luxury boutique hospitality. Based in Palma de Mallorca, he has led hotel projects across Europe and Latin America. He speaks English, French, Spanish, German, and Catalan.
Through HOTELkonzept, Helmut has advised on more than 1,200 properties in over 100 countries. His approach is concept-first: every project begins with the question of what makes a place, its culture, and its heritage worth experiencing — and how to translate that into a hotel that guests remember and return to.
HOTELkonzept is currently expanding into the Central Asian and Silk Road hospitality markets, with a focus on Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan — regions undergoing a significant transformation in luxury and boutique hotel development.
