DEVELOPMENT
“In an industry so complex and competitive, Choice is a superior partner that is franchise-friendly, has deep concern for our bottom line and challenges with rising costs, and seeks to understand rather than be understood, which is why I’ve been working with them for over 15 years.”
Azim Saju
Chief Executive Officer & President at Hotel Development & Management Group, LLC
“Being in the hospitality industry for many years and being from St. Thomas, I knew what the island needed. After seeing a Choice Hotels presentation at a convention, I learned more about the brand and its values and decided it was something that was desperately needed in St. Thomas. It is a really great fit.”
Tamara Lang-Allen, PH.D.
Managing Director, The Mangrove Eco Boutique Hotel Properties
“Choice leads the industry in creating true equity participation, and now I've experienced firsthand why — the company is not satisfied with hanging banners and coming up with logos, but they live inclusiveness and diversity every day.”
Fred Washington
Managing Partner of Southern Accommodations, LLC
“Even in the moments of pivot or change, there’s someone to help you through it. That’s been very appreciated.”
