The 2008 growth spurt is a part of Marshall’s planned development, which will extend the company’s geographic presence along the East Coast and Midwest, diversify its portfolio and showcase its breadth and depth of skills as an owner and manager.

“We have strategically added 35% more properties to our portfolio, in strong markets and aligning with some of the industry’s top brands, while providing the detailed, individualized services that have become our hallmark,” said Michael Marshall, (top right photo) president and CEO of Marshall Management, Inc.

“We’ve increased our portfolio size while still maintaining a high level of personalized service, but remain firmly committed to be a mid-sized management company with a portfolio in the 40- to 60-property range.

"This has allowed us to carve out a niche that sets us apart from other management companies.

"We have added significant management bench strength and further honed our proprietary management systems and are leveraging our skills to increase our value to hotel owners and investors.”
