Holiday Inn Denver East-Stapleton Opens - Formerly the Radisson Stapleton

The hotel is owned by Stapleton Hotel Partners, LLC, a Holualoa Company, and Tucson, Arizona based real estate investor and developer

DENVER, CO – August 3, 2010 - The Holiday Inn Denver East-Stapleton hotel is centrally situated in one of Denver’s most dynamic communities, the Stapleton area. With the iconic control tower as a monument to its historic past, the area has evolved into an eclectic blend of upscale residential communities, lifestyle amenities, charter schools and parks. Shopping, entertainment and restaurants are within walking distance from the hotel and surrounding businesses. Located less than five miles east from the heart of downtown Denver, the centrally located Stapleton area is the largest expansion project in the Mile High City and nationally recognized as a vibrant and environmentally friendly community.

The hotel was renamed the Holiday Inn in March of 2010. The community was seeking a hotel brand compatible with the region’s development. “We are delighted and look forward to representing and working with a brand that has been at the hospitality forefront of customer service and guest satisfaction for fifty-eight years,” said Reggie Casselberry, general manager. “Globally, IHG has been successful redesigning the Holiday Inn logo with a fresh and contemporary look. Keeping Kemmons Wilson, founder of the Holiday Inn ‘America’s Innkeeper’ philosophy alive has been pivotal in establishing that 96% of Americans have stayed at the Holiday Inn.”

The hotel is decorated in hues that reflect Colorado’s vibrancy and energy. All patio guest rooms allow you to step out and enjoy panoramic views of the Rockies and the Denver skyline. The Holiday Inn Denver East-Stapleton hotel guest rooms feature Sleep Number Beds, oversized work stations, data ports and comfortable seating designed for the business traveler. Complimentary Wi-Fi is found throughout the hotel.

Hotel Human Resources: The Biggest Challenges
The economic challenges of the past four years have led many hotel companies to re-examine the ways in which they do business and how they deploy talent. In many cases, the work did not go away and fewer people were left to carry on the tasks that had previously been shared among many. As we work our way out of the recession and look forward to a healthier economic environment, there is an understanding that despite recovering business levels, we may never see the return of former staffing levels. This "new norm" of operating with leaner teams has led Human Resources professionals and people managers to look at career development and growth opportunities in a new light. The March Hotel Business Review will take a look at some of the strategies being used by successful hotel brands, and techniques human resource directors are currently exploring.
