Most properties are syndicated. Hotels are interesting because they are mix of different asset types. The GP operates the place and LPs contribute capital. Accelerated and bonus depreciation passthrough to the LPs entity.

What does syndicated mean?

And how is a hotel a mix of different asset types?

What does GPs and LPs have anything to do with using a hotel to gain a special tax advantage that is not available to any other commercial real estate?

You should probably do some research. You’re basically asking the equivalent of ‘what is a stock? And why is it different than a bond?’

I am doing research, asking the person who made the claim.

How stocks and bonds come into play is beyond me, unless I am being trolled.

But to summarize, zero evidence of how a hotel is a “tax vehicle”, nor any clarification on what a tax vehicle even is, nor why any other business wouldn’t be able to use the same strategy (if it even exists).

		Dude, look up corporate partner structures. General partners. Limited partners. Etc. Do some basic reading so you can ask informed questions from the answers you have already been given, instead of insisting someone is an idiot when they point out you are not asking useful questions. And frankly, no one owes you these answers.
