Kokua to manage recently purchased Baltimore hotel

Kokua Hospitality announced that it has taken over management of the Tremont Plaza Suites and Grand Hotel Historic Venue hotel, located in downtown Baltimore. Garrison Investment Group and Chartres Lodging Group purchased the 300-room property in June.

The new owners had initial plans to reflag the property under Hilton Worldwide’s Embassy Suites brand, but this was opposed by Baltimore’s city government, which owns the Hilton Baltimore and argued that a new franchise would violate the spirit of their operating agreement with Hilton.

“We are excited to announce our first partnership with Garrison Investment Group and add the already-celebrated Tremont Plaza Suites Hotel & Grand Historic Venue properties to the Kokua Hospitality portfolio,” said Maki Nakamura Bara, president of Chartres Lodging and co-chairman of Kokua Hospitality.
