Presidents Corner Fall 2006

Filed Under Presidents Corner | Leave a Comment

Dear Valued Clients,

I had the pleasure of returning to New Orleans for the first time since Hurricane Katrina last week and was absolutely delighted by what I found. Rather than mass devastation and a ruined city, I found that things were very normal, even better than I remembered from past visits.

The Downtown Business District and the French Quarter were full of business travelers and tourists, every major attraction and fine dining establishment was open and doing a brisk business, and the service and hospitality were excellent.

Another new product that we are extremely excited about is the new Hyatt Place Hotels. Formerly Amerisuites, this new hotel concept incorporates a wide range of new amenities and the type of service that today’s business travelers have asked for.

The traditional front desk is gone, replaced by check in kiosks with a concierge atmosphere. The new colors and room amenities are spectacular along with a re-designed lobby with new dining concepts. The first new Hyatt Place is near Perimeter Center in Atlanta with new locations coming very soon.

On behalf of all of us at Williamsburg, we wish you a Very Happy Holiday Season.

Sincerely,

Terry W. Brennan,
President
