Our Company

Murphy, our French Bulldog “Director of Security,” is older than we’ve been around. Well, only in dog years – and just barely. That’s how long the Doras have been hobnobbing in hotels.

 

After more than a half century in the business, it’s safe to say the Dora family knows the hospitality industry. It’s a family tradition that carries on to this day after operating high-quality hotels since 1958. Dora Hotel Company, LLC owner Tim Dora is proud to continue the family legacy through his Indiana-based hospitality management company.

 

“We develop awesome hotels that are creatively designed, meticulously maintained and sparkling clean,” Dora said. “We do this because we love it and we are really good at it.”

 

Dora Hotel Company oversees 20-plus properties throughout Indiana. Tim Dora is a principal in most of the properties, while those not owned are operated under management agreements.

The company works with multiple global hotel brands including Hilton Worldwide (NYSE: HLT), Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR), InterContinental Hotels Group (NYSE: IHG), as well as several other independent properties. Dora Hotel Company specializes in real estate development and management, and owns, develops and/or manages restaurants, office buildings and parking garages in addition to hotels. The company provides a full range of hospitality services including accounting and financial reporting, purchasing, design and construction services, franchisor relationships, sales administration and revenue management.

 

Our team members are dedicated to providing our guests with outstanding service in impeccably clean and well-maintained hotels. We aggressively renovate our hotels to provide our guests with the highest-quality facilities in the markets that they serve. We carefully select and train our team members to ensure quality customer service. Our success is achieved by providing our guests with service and facilities that are second to none, and by maximizing asset values for our partners and clients.

 

For a first-class hospitality experience, visit a Dora Hotel Company property next time you’re on the go – and tell them Murphy sent you.
