Hotel management company LBA Hospitality and developer 3H Group recently held the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Candlewood Suites Chattanooga East and Holiday Inn Express Chattanooga East in East Chattanooga, TN.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by local community leaders and representatives from the two companies.
The dual-branded IHG property is located a mile from Hamilton Place Mall. LBA associates Nathan Smith and Renee Mote have been promoted to dual GM and area director of sales, respectively, for the hotels.
“We are incredibly excited to welcome guests to these two extraordinary hotels in East Chattanooga,” said Smith. “Our mission is to provide an excellent hospitality experience that reflects the unique charm and dynamic spirit of Chattanooga.”
Beau Benton, president, LBA Hospitality, said, “By focusing on Chattanooga’s thriving market, we’re not just growing our presence; we’re building on our established track record of success. Our intimate knowledge of the Chattanooga landscape, shaped by hands-on management of several other local Chattanooga hotels, empowers us to not only promise and deliver an exceptional stay experience for our guests but also to forge substantial growth and profitability for our owners.”
These new additions, the first dual-branded initiative between LBA Hospitality and 3H Group, introduce 154 rooms to the area.
