Unicorn Hospitality strengthens its european operations: Maintenance teams now active in Berlin & London, with Amsterdam soon to come

23 Nov 2025

As Unicorn Hospitality continues its rapid expansion across Europe, we are reinforcing one of the most crucial pillars of property performance: technical maintenance. We are proud to announce that dedicated, in-house Unicorn Maintenance Teams are now fully active in Berlin & London - with Amsterdam soon coming — creating a stronger, smarter, and more responsive operating foundation across our HOaaS platform (Hotel Operations-as-a-Service).

This marks a new milestone in our goal to deliver Europe’s most reliable and guest-centric hospitality operations system.


Our Philosophy: Maintenance as a Strategic Advantage

Modern hospitality requires far more than cleaning and check-in coordination.Buildings must perform — every day, at every hour. That means:

  • Systems that work

  • Rooms that operate faultlessly

  • Spaces that remain safe, compliant and guest-ready

  • Fast intervention when something breaks

  • Zero disruption to the guest journey

By bringing maintenance fully in-house, Unicorn ensures that the properties we manage operate at the highest standards of safety, functionality and efficiency — with the agility to respond immediately to issues, predict failures, and reduce long-term wear.

🧰 What Our Maintenance Teams Deliver

Inspired by best practices across facility management, redefined with Unicorn’s hospitality DNA.

🔧 Reactive Maintenance

Fast, precise troubleshooting — ensuring issues are resolved same-day whenever possible.

🔍 Preventive Maintenance

Structured weekly inspections to protect assets, reduce unexpected failures, and extend the lifespan of equipment and building components.

💧 Plumbing & Water Systems

Minor plumbing repairs, leak checks, fixture replacements, and functional inspections.

💡 Electrical & Lighting Tasks

Minor electrical fixes, lighting replacements, and safety checks (within certification limits).

🌬️ HVAC & Ventilation

Filter checks, minor servicing and performance monitoring.

🚪 Carpentry & Small Repairs

Doors, locks, handles, walls, mastic/caulking, furniture repairs.

🚨 Safety, Fire & Compliance Routines

Fire-alarm water checks, risk mitigation, HSE tasks, and coordination with building management.

📅 Planning & Coordination

Scheduled repair windows, clear communication, and zero last-minute cancellations.

🏙️ Berlin: Our Proven Model

Berlin has served as our blueprint city for integrated housekeeping and maintenance operations.Our Berlin team is fully established and already supports a large portfolio with:

  • Daily repairs

  • Preventive inspections

  • Emergency response

  • Plumbing, electrical, HVAC and carpentry tasks

  • Standardized reporting and partner communication

Berlin’s success has been instrumental in shaping our European technical standards.

🇬🇧 London: New Team, Big Impact

In response to sharp growth in the UK, Unicorn has launched a new maintenance division in London.Our technician — with experience from hotels and serviced-apartment environments — now oversees:

  • Realtime repairs

  • Weekly building inspections

  • HVAC & plumbing

  • Safety & fire routines

  • Minor electrical tasks

  • Rapid partner support across the entire city

This dramatically improves response time, stability, and cost efficiency for our partners.

🇳🇱 Amsterdam: Establishing a Benelux Maintenance Hub

Amsterdam’s expanding portfolio and multi-property pipeline made it the natural next step. When soon active, the new maintenance team will support:

  • Unicorn-managed Amsterdam properties

  • All upcoming projects

  • Future operational growth in Rotterdam and The Hague

This positions Amsterdam as a strategic technical hub for the Benelux region.

🤝 What This Means for Property Owners & Operators

Improved guest satisfaction

Fewer defects, quicker repairs, smoother stays.

🚀 Looking Ahead

Unicorn will continue expanding maintenance services into:

  • Oslo

  • Stockholm

  • Hamburg

  • Munich

  • Rotterdam

  • Copenhagen

As our portfolio grows, we remain committed to building the strongest operational backbone in European hospitality — where buildings run smoothly, teams work seamlessly, and guests feel the difference.
