US: The $7.7 million renovation of the former Hilton Suites Lexington Green has been completed, and the property has been rebranded Embassy Suites by Hilton Lexington Green.
The project has been undertaken by 245 LGC Hotel Partners LLC, a US private real estate investment in conjunction with Quorum Hotels & Resorts. The property-wide renovation featured a complete revamp of the guest rooms, and public spaces which “pay homage to Kentucky’s heritage of thoroughbred racing and bourbon with a modern twist”.
Quorum Hotels & Resorts acquired the 174-room full-service hotel in June 2016 with plans to implement a renovation and rebranding program. The hotel has a prime location in the heart of Lexington’s shopping and dining district and is located close to Blue Grass Airport and Keeneland Racetrack.
“With its central location to shops, attractions and value-added amenities, Embassy Suites by Hilton Lexington Green, is the perfect addition for all travellers,” said Alan Roberts, global head, Embassy Suites by Hilton. “Guests can also enjoy the property’s quiet lakeside location and outdoor patio to relax after a busy day.”
General manager Pam Avery said: “Following our extensive renovation and rebranding, our suites are stylishly furnished, where guests can enjoy a living area, a work desk and private bedroom. As commercial activity continues to strengthen in Lexington, it has become a prime destination for both business and leisure travellers.”
The hotel is part of the Lexington Green Shopping Center, and features more than 3,000 square feet of flexible meeting space that can accommodate groups of up to 150 people. The property also features a spacious restaurant with Kentucky flavoured dining, a business centre, outdoor pool, 24-hour fitness centre, gift shop and outdoor event space.</p
