NEWS | Hilton to open Embassy Suites Baltimore Downtown in May 2013


Hilton Worldwide’s Embassy Suites Hotels will open the 300-room Embassy Suites Baltimore Downtown in May 2013. It is the brand's third property in the state of Maryland, USA. The hotel, which is being called the Tremont Suites Hotel & Grand Historic Venue in the interim is a joint venture between Garrison Investment Group and The Chartres Lodging Group, and managed by Kokua Hospitality, LLC.
"We are excited to welcome the property into our portfolio and to bring the Embassy Suites brand into the revitalization of downtown Baltimore," said John Rogers, Global Head, Embassy Suites Hotels. "This conversion hotel is a demonstration of our flexible approach to development,” Rogers added. The hotel encompasses the acclaimed Grand Historic Venue, which underwent a USD 27 million renovation in 2006 and features 45,000 square feet of meeting space with 19 individually restored banquet rooms. It has been a popular space for local weddings, business meetings, parties and other events, and will remain as such under the new Embassy Suites name. Embassy Suites Baltimore Downtown will feature all of the signature amenities standard at any Embassy Suites Hotels including an atrium, free cooked-to-order breakfast each morning, a two-hour Complimentary Evening Reception each night, two-room suites with a separate living area, private bedroom and wet bar fitted with a microwave, mini-fridge and coffee maker.
