Valencia Group Names Longtime Leader Marcus Latner as General Manager of Newest Hotels in College Station - Cavalry Court and The George™

. December 06, 2016

COLLEGE STATION, TX. December 6, 2016 - Valencia Group has named Marcus Latner as General Manager of Cavalry Court and The George™ hotels in College Station. Latner, who started as a valet parking attendant more than 13 years ago at Valencia Group's Hotel Valencia Riverwalk in San Antonio, has extensively risen through the ranks, and as general manager will oversee all aspects of property management and guest satisfaction for Cavalry Court, recently opened on November 18, 2016, and The George™, opening in Spring 2017.

“Marcus Latner has a proven track record for leading our properties to success. We feel fortunate to have him overseeing our two newest College Station projects from commencement and further unfolding the motor court concept in the Texas market,” said Valencia Group Vice President of Operations Roy Kretschmer.

Latner most recently served as general manager for Lone Star Court at the Domain in Austin, Valencia Group's first motor court concept hotel. Prior to that, he was the front office manager at Hotel Sorella CITYCENTRE in Houston, where he helped open and lead the property to award-winning national recognition.

After earning a master's degree in business communications from Monmouth University in New Jersey, Latner joined the Valencia Group when the Hotel Valencia Riverwalk opened in 2003. He was quickly promoted from valet parking attendant to bellman, where he was mentored by hotel staff to develop management skills, serving in the front office, housekeeping, food and beverage, and sales departments.

Nestled in a region steeped in Texas history and military traditions, Cavalry Court and The George™ hotels are the cornerstone to College Station's most vibrant new community, Century Square, a 60-acre regional destination under development by Midway in conjunction with Texas A&M University, offering retail, restaurant, and entertainment venues; office space; and apartment homes at 100 Park, creating a unique urban landscape authentic to the Brazos Valley. The two hotels under development by Midway and Valencia Group, will have a combined 303 rooms and more than 10,000 square feet of space, offering luxurious accommodations and an elevated hospitality experience.
