Whitestone Capital Elevates Colorado Springs Hospitality
Hilton Garden Inn Colorado Springs North and Homewood Suites Colorado Springs North are now open in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Whitestone Capital, a division of Whitestone Cos. led by CEO Jay Batra, recently completed year-long renovations of the dual-branded property with Ohio-based Striv Design.
Regal Hospitality, a subsidiary of Whitestone Cos., will manage operations, according to a company statement.
“We are thrilled to reintroduce these hotels to the community and our loyal guests,” said Batra. “Our teams, along with Striv Design and Regal Hospitality, have created spaces that elevate the travel experience. We invite both business and leisure travelers to experience it for themselves.”
The Hilton Garden Inn and Homewood Suites are adjacent to each other and near the U.S. Air Force Academy. The properties offer indoor and outdoor pools and three fitness areas for business travelers.
Batra said the properties were valuable assets that needed investment to position them as key properties in the area.
“The first time we toured the property, we were at a loss for words at the mountain views from the guestrooms,” said Chuck Groger, Whitestone’s chief revenue officer. “We knew then all the properties needed was a renovation and a management team who cared. And now, with the transformation complete, we are thrilled to celebrate it with the entire Colorado Springs community.”
Whitestone recently acquired the 144-room Homewood Suites by Hilton Minneapolis-Mall of America, its first investment in Minnesota and fourth Homewood Suites purchase in 18 months.
