A Group of Historic, Boutique or Unique Hotels
Ascend Collection® a group of historic, boutique or unique hotels. The Ascend Collection® hotel membership program by Choice Hotels® represents a distinct ownership opportunity for independent hoteliers. Unlike traditional franchise concepts, Ascend Collection members are able to retain their authentic character of an independent hotel, local identity, and signage. Working in conjunction with your sterling reputation, Ascend Collection connects your highly regarded property to Choice Hotels, one of the largest franchise organizations in the world with over 6,700 properties open and under development worldwide.* We have over 70 years experience in developing services, resources, field support, property management systems and ongoing training designed to enhance hotel performance. The Ascend Collection program allows you to keep your own name and signage, while utilizing the specific resources that work best for your individual needs. Member hotels must embody one of the three distinct categories - Historic, Boutique or Unique.
HISTORIC HOTELS STEEPED WITH TRADITION Our Historic hotels have been embracing the heritage of their local communities for over 50 years. These classic upscale hotels are found in all areas, from urban centers to small towns. The common area spaces reflect the local heritage and property’s identity, which includes design elements that are representative of this local feel.
BOUTIQUE HOTELS THE EPITOME OF MODERN SOPHISTICATION Boutique hotels offer the latest in décor and modern flourishes. These contemporary upscale hotels are found primarily in urban centers. They offer an up-to-date feel with the latest amenities available in the market today with highly consistent guest service.
UNIQUE HOTELS A THEMED EXPERIENCE Our Unique product class is a collection of properties that are as diverse as the collection itself. These upscale niche hotels are found in all markets from urban centers to small towns, and resort locations. They offer themed experiences, (i.e. water park, log cabins, ski lodge) that permeate through the entire property and include themed styled amenities with energetic guest service. * Source Internal Data as of 09/30/10.
