On this episode of Suite Success, host Katie Cline welcomes Richard Brekelmans, a seasoned hospitality executive with more than three decades of experience at Marriott International and Starwood Hotels and Resorts, and now the founder of RICHMANS Hospitality Advisory.

Katie and Richard dive into his unique perspective on the hospitality industry, having worked on every side of it—from being the General Manager for Europe’s hottest hotel opening (W Barcelona) to various corporate leadership roles. Today, he advises hotel owners, operators, and investors on strategy, operations, and brand development. They explore how early exposure to hospitality and entrepreneurship shaped his career, and why growing up in Holland, immersed in multiple languages, gave him a lifelong edge.

Richard shares what it really takes to open a luxury hotel under intense pressure, from hiring the right team—sometimes with no prior industry experience—to empowering them to act like business owners themselves. He explains why balancing stakeholders, brand expectations, and guest experience is both the challenge and the beauty of being a GM, and why “good enough” often beats perfect when it comes to launching a hotel.

Katie and Richard also unpack the importance of hiring people who fit your brand’s values and culture, professionalizing hotel marketing, and taking calculated risks that pay off. Listeners will walk away with actionable insights on leadership, recruitment, and creating a culture that makes a hotel—and its team—truly extraordinary.

This conversation is equal parts hospitality strategy, leadership insight, and career inspiration—and a reminder that the right team and mindset can make all the difference in bringing big visions to life.

On this episode of Suite Success, host Katie Cline welcomes two of her longtime colleagues and friends: Yamil Errasti, the Founder of Everything Now, a marketing studio that helps brands find their voice and cut through the noise; and Pelayo Pintado, the CEO and Founder of Idónea Comunicación, one of the top PR and communications agencies in Spain.

They also happen to be married — and Katie takes full credit, having set them up on a blind date years ago.

The trio revisit that first date (spoiler: tapas were involved), and explore how two people from very different backgrounds — Mexico and Spain — ended up building a life together and growing two wildly successful businesses in the process. You’ll hear how cultural nuance, communication styles, and a shared love of storytelling helped shape their partnership.

Yamil shares what it means to build a brand from the inside out, and how he helps clients uncover not just what they do, but why it matters. Pelayo opens up about navigating the fast-paced world of PR and the art of managing clients, media, and moments that matter. Together, they discuss how they’ve built trust with global brands, maintained creative integrity, and supported each other every step of the way.

They also address the age old question: which matters more- marketing or PR?

This conversation is equal parts creative inspiration, business strategy, and personal love story — and a reminder that sometimes, the best partnerships begin with a leap of faith (and a nudge from a mutual friend).
