Expotel Hospitality Services Adds Two Louisiana Properties to Management Portfolio
NEW ORLEANS, LA. October 29, 2015 - New Orleans-based hotel owner/management company Expotel Hospitality Services, LLC, has announced the addition of two new Louisiana properties to its management portfolio: the 104-room Holiday Inn Express and Suites in Baton Rouge, and the 102-room Hampton Inn in New Iberia.
Kim Cusimano will remain manager of the Hampton Inn New Iberia, which is owned by Megha, LLC. Expotel officials said an announcement will be made shortly about manager for the Holiday Inn Express and Suites in Baton Rouge, which is owned by Siegen Hospitality Enterprises LLC.
Danielle DeGeorge, Expotel Hospitality's vice president of sales and marketing, said both properties are in ideal locations for visitors to both communities.
"The Hampton Inn in New Iberia is very close to one of the state's leading tourist destinations, Avery Island, home of the fabled McIlhenny Co.'s Tabasco Sauce," she commented. "The new Baton Rouge property is located within minutes of both the LSU campus and the state capitol complex."
DeGeorge said the Hampton Inn New Iberia offers 4,500 SF of meeting and social event space, she added.
The addition of these two properties brings to 11 the total number of hotels currently under Expotel Hospitality management, seven of which are located in the south Louisiana region, including New Orleans. The company plans to add an additional three new Louisiana properties to its portfolio in 2016, DeGeorge said.
