CHARLOTTE, NC - August 31, 2011 - Holiday Inn Center City is honored to be chosen for The 2011 Partner of the Year Award for full service hotel by Visit Charlotte, formerly known as the Charlotte Convention and Visitors Bureau. The eight categories awarded included Professional of the year, which was bestowed to Holiday Inn Center City's own Jackie Berkowitz, Director of Sales & Marketing.

Winners were nominated by Visit Charlotte employees for outstanding performance and partnership collaboration to grow the Charlotte region as a thriving visitor destination. Holiday Inn Center City works closely with Visit Charlotte to encourage tourism to the Charlotte, North Carolina area, while up keeping the shared vision of Southern hospitality and premier customer service.

Holiday Inn Center City is considered part of the “Sweet Spot” for the Uptown Hotel group when bidding on large citywide conventions. With a prime location adjacent to the Time Warner Cable Arena and four blocks from the Convention Center, Holiday Inn Center City is always ready to assist when called upon to build business for the city and competes neck and neck with all the 4- and 5-star hotels in Uptown Charlotte. To close on sales, Holiday Inn Center City entertains many clients in their award winning Caffe Siena restaurant. The Hotel hosts client parties, Chef's Tables and theme parties in the concierge lounge and roof top and is eager to get new business to the Hotel to show them the Hotel, which recently earned the IHG Renovation of the Year Award.

Jackie Berkowitz, Director of Sales & Marketing, participates in all Visit Charlotte functions and goes above and beyond the idea of Southern hospitality. Mike Butts of Visit Charlotte says of Jackie, “[On a] regular basis you show your support of our efforts and what we try to accomplish. You are always responsive and provide good input when we need it.” Jackie has worked in hotels in Charlotte for 16 years and a total of 21 years in the industry.
