Airport
Wins National Sales Award
Windsor Locks, CT (April 7, 2008) --- The Doubletree Hotel Bradley
International Airport has been recognized as a top performer in the
Doubletree brand by Hilton Hotels Corporation. The property received the
2007 Director of Sales Award for “Most Improved RevPAR Index in an Airport
Market”. RevPAR is a measure of revenue per available room and the index
award is an indication of this hotel’s ability to successfully capture an
improved share of both occupancy and rate in their market. The Windsor Locks
location was chosen from among all Doubletree airport locations eligible for
this honor in North America.
The Doubletree in Windsor Locks, owned by United Capital Corporation of
Great Neck, NY, completed a 2 million dollar renovation in 2006. The project
has given the 20-year old hotel a new face. Work on the 200-room hotel
included a refurbished lobby and meeting space, bathroom facilities,
modernization of guest rooms, installation of new furniture, and a state of
the art business center located centrally in the lobby.
“It is an honor to be recognized on a national level,” commented William
Gemme, General Manager. “Our extensive renovations and continued commitment
to quality and guest service has positioned our hotel among the best in the
brand,” he added.
