Greenbelt, MD - June 18, 2014 - Chesapeake Hospitality, one of the country's fastest growing third-party hotel management companies, has added the management of the Milwaukee River Inn located in Glendale, Wisconsin to its growing full-service management portfolio. Kim Sims, president of Chesapeake Hospitality, made the announcement.

The Milwaukee River Inn was most recently operated under the Hilton flag, but will immediately begin a complete multi-million dollar renovation before re-introducing itself as a Holiday Inn later this year. The updated property will feature an expanded lobby and a new bar area with spectacular river views, an updated ballroom and meeting center and new bathrooms, carpets and furniture in each of the 161 guest rooms.
This will be Chesapeake Hospitality's first Wisconsin property, reflective of the company's ongoing growth and extensive experience generating results and delivering guest satisfaction at branded and independent full-service hotels nationally.

“We are thrilled to be a part of this unique hotel's journey at this critical turning point in its history,” said Sims. “Chesapeake's experience in turn-around management and proven success in delivering bottom-line results, coupled with the new features of this property and it's prime location, will write an exciting new chapter that benefits both the local community and business and leisure travelers.”

The Milwaukee River Inn is conveniently located near Miller Park and the Potowotami Casino and just a 10-minute drive from the museums, restaurants and entertainment options downtown Milwaukee has to offer.

Headquartered in Greenbelt, Md., just outside of Washington, D.C., Chesapeake Hospitality is a mid-sized, third-party hotel management company with a proven track record in both full- and select-service hotels. Ranked in the top 50 largest independent operators, the company manages properties under the Hilton, Starwood and InterContinental Hotel Group brand families.
