WINCHESTER, VA, Nov. 30, 2011—Officials of Marshall Hotels & Resorts, Inc., a leading, Maryland-based hotel management and services company, today announced the George Washington (top left photo), A Wyndham Grand Hotel in Winchester, Va., continues its award-winning ways with top rankings in three different categories: guest satisfaction, RevPAR performance and a TripAdvisor award for positive guest comments.
The property has been managed by Marshall Hotels & Resorts since 2009.
The hotel has been the top-rated hotel in the Wyndham system in guest satisfaction for the past three months in a row and currently leads the approximate 90-hotel brand by a meaningful margin with just two months remaining in the year.
The hotel also has received the Wyndham Presidents RevPAR Performance Award for the second consecutive year for achieving more than 100 percent market share. RevPAR, revenue per available room, is a key indicator of how well a hotel competes. The property recently was awarded TripAdvisor’s Certifcate of Excellence, which is based on actual guest comments and ratings.
“General Manager David Cavallaro (lower left photo) and his team have done a remarkable job since taking over management of the hotel in March of 2009,” said Mike Marshall (top right photo), president and CEO, Marshall Hotels & Resorts, Inc.
“It is one thing to turn a hotel into a top performer, it is quite another to sustain that leadership in the highly competitive hotel market, especially in the difficult economy of the past several years. David and his team are deserving recipients of these honors, and we are confident of their future success.”
The George Washington, A Wyndham Grand Hotel, is a full-service hotel located in the Shenandoah Valley at 103 East Piccadilly Street in Winchester, Va.
Built in 1924, the 90-room, Georgian Revival-style hotel was fully restored in 2008 and offers nearly 7,400 square feet of flexible meeting and event space capable of accommodating up to 300 people, including a grand ballroom; complimentary high-speed Internet; two onsite dining options, The Dancing Goat Restaurant and The Half Note Lounge; and a Roman-style swimming pool. In addition the hotel will open an intimate health spa called Saumaj Health Spa in January 2012.
“We are fortunate to have a great historic building with the lure of one of the nicest ballrooms in the Shenandoah Valley,” Cavallaro said. “The hotel has become the favorite choice for family and social gatherings in the area. The TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence is truly a credit to the hard work and determination of every one of our associates. Our goal remains to be a major part of the community and to provide a memorable guest experience every time, every day.”
