With Crisis Comes Opportunity

Who We Are

Trinity Hotels was founded in-part by Anil, Rajan, and Anish Taneja of Palm Holdings Canada. Based on three generations of experience, and $500M+ of transactions, they know how to capitalize on opportunities in the hospitality sector. They are the driving force behind Palm Holdings Canada, which is a vertically integrated hotelier who’s primary business model has been an acquisition, value-add, and sell strategy. While this remains true today, the recent pandemic has caused a catastrophic shortage of cash in many underperforming assets; and this creates the opportunity that Trinity Hotels is looking to capitalize on.
