White Lodging Awarded Highest Form of Recognition From Apple REIT
MERRILLVILLE, Ind., March 10 /PRNewswire/ -- White Lodging is proud to announce that the Hilton Garden Inn Saratoga Springs, New York is the recipient of Apple REIT's highest form of recognition, the Shining Apple. Each year Apple REIT chooses two properties in their portfolio that best exemplify growth in revpar, house profit, guest satisfaction, index and overall realization of the company vision.
Senior Asset Manager – Apple REIT - K. C. Gallagher states, "The year over year improvement at the Hilton Garden Inn Saratoga Springs was quite impressive. White Lodging has always stood out as a strong management company. However, in 2009 while many other management companies struggled to react to the economic downturn and historically low occupancy levels, White Lodging entered the year with plans in place to cut costs wherever appropriate and to operate at new levels of efficiency to combat the low occupancy. The proactive attack gave us stable performance throughout the year and prevented us from having periods of horrible flow and productivity in the first quarter."
Dave Sibley, President and CEO of White Lodging's Hospitality Division comments, "We are extremely proud of the White Lodging team at the Hilton Garden Inn Saratoga Springs and our partnership with Apple REIT. Our mission is to maximize the value of each and every asset for our owners, and to be once again recognized for this accomplishment is a great honor."
White Lodging manages thirteen of Apple REIT's 200 properties and has been the honored recipient of a Shining Apple award each year since its inception.
