Staybridge Suites Hotels has opened the doors of its newest hotel in San Diego, Calif. The 68-room all-suite hotel in San Diego, is the 72nd addition to the brand's growing portfolio of extended-stay hotels.
Originally built in 1928 as one of the first luxury hotel and apartment facilities in downtown San Diego, the completely renovated hotel is owned by 12th & "A" Hotel Partners, LP, an affiliate of Shapery Enterprises, and managed by InterContinental Hotels Group Resources, Inc., is operated under a license agreement with a company in the InterContinental Hotels Group.
"We are pleased to announce the grand opening of the first Staybridge Suites hotel in downtown San Diego," said Jim Anhut, senior vice president, brand management, Staybridge Suites hotels. "This hotel is the third Staybridge Suites hotel to open in San Diego County in the last two years and our ninth hotel in California.
