Rosemont, Ill., January 28, 2016 - Rosemont, Illinois-based First Hospitality Group, Inc. (FHG) announced that it has assumed management of a hotel at 31500 Wick Road in Romulus, Mich., which will reopen as the Radisson Hotel Detroit Metro Airport in mid-2016. FHG President and CEO Robert Habeeb made the announcement.
The 274-room hotel, which has been closed since mid-2012, is currently undergoing renovations and slated to re-open in summer 2016 upon completion.
The hotel, owned by RKJ Hotel Management, offers more than 13,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, a dining room, fitness room, concierge lounge, coffee and snack bar and an indoor/outdoor pool and Jacuzzi. Extensive renovations will be made to the parking areas, restaurant, meeting rooms, common areas and guest rooms.
“FHG has been looking to extend our reach in the metro Detroit area for some time now and this property presented us a great opportunity as turnaround specialists to revitalize this hotel and re-introduce it to the community,” said Habeeb. “We are confident that as a Radisson, with our award-winning midwestern management team at the helm, this property will become an amazing asset to the millions of people traveling through the Detroit Metro Airport each year.”

Julie Brezina Interior Design will serve as the designer of the property and Coast to Coast Renovation will execute on the engineering and construction work. The Radisson Hotel Detroit Metro Airport, located less than 30 miles from both downtown Detroit (to the East) and University town Ann Arbor (to the West) will be an ideal destination for guests coming to the Southeast Michigan area for business or leisure.
