Hotels, Resorts and Casinos

Our firm has advised large international hotel chains that have settled in Chile, not only on how to establish themselves in the country and directly operate their establishments on a day-to-day basis, but also in all financial and tax aspects, and in particular with respect to the negotiation with third parties related to operating, management and franchise contracts. Likewise, we see the day-to-day hotel operation in all its aspects, such as labor, litigation, commercial, regulatory and operational.

We have represented a significant number of hotel establishments in Chile in copyright proceedings regarding musical and audiovisual reproductions, among others.

In addition, since the entry into force of the Gaming Casinos Law, we have advised multiple local and foreign investors who have participated in the different bidding processes for licenses for gaming casinos, as well as in the application and/or acquisition of licenses to operate gaming casinos; collaborating in the preparation of background presentations and in the preparation of comprehensive projects before the administrative authority, in addition to the negotiation with investors, suppliers and local partners (joint ventures). Additionally, we have advised gaming casinos in negotiations of acquisitions and mergers; contracts with hotel chains, operation of restaurants and other contracts and services.
