The hotel's architect, Nelsen Partners, and interior designers BBGM and MONOGRAM Hospitality Interiors at BBGM accentuate Tucson's unique history and soul through modern classical southwestern design, featuring a robust collection of indoor plants and art inspired by local animals and landscapes.

Spanning across nine floors, the 145-room property includes amenities such as a fitness center, function hall, meeting spaces, and The St. Cruz restaurant - a casual dining outlet that offers to-go options, with an elevated bar and lounge.

DALLAS, April 18, 2022 — Remington Hotels, a dynamic and growing hotel management company, has acquired Chesapeake Hospitality's hotel management expertise, and legacy of excellence. With 65 years of experience helping hotel owners and real estate investors in the eastern United States discover their properties' full potential, Chesapeake joins Remington with a complementary vision and mission.

 

The acquisition expands Remington's footprint to Midwestern markets, including Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Detroit, and St. Louis. Additionally, Remington will expand its portfolio of IHG and independent properties in several locations and will manage its first Wyndham property. Though the two companies will be operating under the Remington Hotels brand, all former Chesapeake hotels will remain under the same management and can expect the same exceptional service.

 

Chesapeake has a long and storied reputation as a results-driven, culture-forward, high-performance organization with an eye for helping clients achieve their full potential through exceptional guest experiences. Chesapeake was built on a legacy of creating asset value by performing deep turnarounds, re-branding, and re-positioning, which is critical in the competitive, post-pandemic hotel management marketplace. Joining Remington will unlock expanded resources that will take what clients love about Chesapeake and supercharge it, driving hotel success and enhanced profitability. Chris Green — Chesapeake's current CEO who joined Chesapeake over 21 years ago — will serve as Divisional President of Remington.

 

"I'm so proud that Chesapeake is joining Remington, a company that is known for its stellar results and has made a real cultural shift in the hotel management space," said Chris Green, Divisional President of Remington Hotels. "This partnership will be a practice in blending two companies that have operated in different geographical lanes and have a steadfast commitment to doing what is best for their clients and employees. I'm looking forward to taking the service our clients know and love to the next level as we access the resources Remington has to offer."

 

Committed to thoughtful company growth, Remington Hotels has been pursuing an organization with similar standards and strengths with which to partner. Chesapeake and Remington are both defined by their core values as much as their core competencies. With Chesapeake's tagline being "experience what's possible" and Remington's being "where passionate people thrive," the two companies are fully aligned and are both associate-focused, ultimately providing better hotel owner and guest service.

 

"Though the hospitality space has faced massive challenges over the past few years, Remington has remained steadfast in its commitment to being the best hotel manager in the industry," said Remington President and CEO Sloan Dean. "By melding Chesapeake's culture and know-how with ours, we'll be able to cultivate even stronger relationships with our properties' owners by providing them with more resources, better economies of scale, and a more satisfying guest experience."

 

With the completion of this transaction, Remington Hotels will have a portfolio of 121 managed properties under contract in 28 states and Washington, D.C. As a result of the acquisition, Remington's mix of third party hotels will increase from approximately 20 percent to approximately 40 percent. The combined company will be headquartered in Dallas and oversee all day-to-day operations of the entire national portfolio of properties. The same management teams will still be in place to deliver the same level of service owners and guests expect.

 

Guests of Sky Rock Sedona are greeted with a spacious, comfortable, and relaxing space to stay in while visiting Sedona. The hotel's 109 guestrooms are intimately nestled into the landscape, allowing guests to embrace their scenic surroundings. Many rooms walk out to a spectacular, shared communal terrace with striking views perfect for coffee at sunrise, happy hour at sunset, or moonlit yoga under the stars. A selection of rooms boast fireplaces, while others are pet-friendly for vacationing with a furry best friend.

 

"We are thrilled to manage this incredible, experiential hotel in one of the United States' premier leisure destinations," said Jarrad Evans, chief investment officer at Remington Hotels. "Sedona is a very special market, and we look forward to supporting the hotel's ownership in executing their creative business plan to provide guests with an unforgettable experience."

 

Sky Rock was created with one goal in mind: that all who visit take a piece of Sedona's enchanting spirit with them and return home feeling uplifted, invigorated, and connected. Sky Rock is more than a place to rest one's head. It's a wholly immersive experience that greets guests with a warm welcome and gives inspirational, panoramic views of the vibrant Sedona landscape. 

 

"We are honored to welcome Sky Rock Sedona to the Twin Bridges Hospitality portfolio. Sedona continues to be one of the premier hotel markets in the country and will be a great addition to our premium market strategy," said Jeff Stofko, vice president of asset management at Twin Bridges Hospitality. "The hotel is set to undergo a full renovation, and upon completion, Sky Rock Sedona will offer upgraded room products, enhanced spaces, and elevated food and beverage offerings aligned with the mystique of the Sedona red rocks."

 

A visit to Sedona can be anything guests want to make it. Whether they're interested in ancient cultures or hiking, wild animals, wellness-minded activities, or off-road adventures, Sedona has something to offer for everyone, and Remington is proud to integrate its management expertise to make it an even better experience.

"The priority is on business operations and maintaining a staff to support the business as it operates today," he said in an email interview.

 

He said Remington has had to reorganize responsibilities among remaining staff to live up to their mission of "uninterrupted service."

"Remington Hotels is rolling out a multi-pronged approach to address necessary safety and cleaning measures in response to COVID-19. These measures include enhanced cleaning and safety protocols across all 87 hotels, a revised training program for all Remington Hotels associates and a revamped approach to food & beverage," says Rob Carl, Remington Hotels' VP of Facilities and Capital Planning and appointed lead for the company's COVID-19 Response Committee. 

 

As part of the company's response, Remington Hotels aligned with an industrial hygienist to develop a COVID-19 mitigation program for all hotels that outlines procedures in the event of a guest or associate being infected. As well, each Remington Hotels property is now utilizing EPA-registered disinfectant products with proven efficacy in killing respiratory viruses, including COVID-19. Additional steps taken to enhance cleaning procedures include:

 

• Public Areas: All hotels have increased the frequency of cleaning and disinfecting public spaces, with an emphasis on disinfecting protocol focused on "high touch" areas including door handles, public bathrooms, reception, stairwells, lobby furnishings/hard surfaces, guest laundry facilities, elevators and push buttons, corner pantries and bell carts.
• Food & Beverage: Food offerings have been converted to prepared grab and go bags not to be consumed in public areas of hotels.

• Guest Rooms: In addition to thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting rooms between guest departures and arrivals, Remington Hotels utilizes OpenKey as a "contactless" digital entry tool that limits guest and employee contact. The brand also offers Pure Rooms at all properties, to promote wellbeing in the guest rooms by providing purified air, hypoallergenic environments and allergy-friendly options.

 

The health, safety and knowledge of Remington Hotels' associates are imperative to an effective cleaning program. To meet these criteria, the company has adopted the following heightened protocol:

• Enhanced Protocols for Operation and Training: With the new procedures and protocols in place, Remington Hotels has developed an updated training program to ensure associates are well versed in the new cleaning and guest interaction protocols.   
• Well Being Checks: Remington Hotels is instituting mandatory temperature checks of all associates when the associate starts their shift and additional times spaced out throughout the remainder of the shift.
• Handwashing and Protective Gear: Associates are mandated to wash their hands a minimum of every two hours, following the CDC guidelines. Additionally, associates are required to wear gloves and masks at all times. 

 

Remington Hotels is supplying each of its 87 hotels with the proper protective gear to ensure associates can safely welcome guests and work together, including reusable masks from fellow Texas-based company, Dallas Wear Uniforms. The company, which traditionally makes uniforms for sports teams, has repurposed its factory to manufacture PPE due to COVID-19.

 

Further, company leadership, including Rob Carl, COO Stan Kennedy and Senior VP of Operations Joe Masi, represent Remington Hotels on several leading industry committees who are collaboratively working towards determining best practices moving forward, including AHLA's Stay Safe Advisory Council, Hilton's CleanStay and Marriott's Global Cleanliness Council. In turn, Remington Hotels leadership is implementing key learnings from these committees across the company's hotels.

 

"We hope that these enhanced measures will help provide both our staff and guests with a sense of ease in these difficult times," says Stan Kennedy, COO of Remington Hotels. "We look forward to continue welcoming our valued guests to our properties across the country thus allowing us to bring our associates back from furlough."
