CHICAGO (July 2, 2015) – Ultima Hospitality, an industry-leading investment and hotel management company, announced today the closing and acquisition of the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Boston – Westborough in Westborough, Mass.

“We were very excited for the opportunity to acquire another institutional asset in a market we have had great success in. This acquisition also continues to broaden our relationship with Hilton Worldwide, Inc., with this being our third hotel with a Hilton brand affiliation.” says Nir Liebling, chief investment officer of Ultima Hospitality. “Westborough and the surrounding areas have reached a critical mass of large corporate tenants that have recently made sizable investments in the area, signifying their long term commitment and providing a stable economic base and downside protection for years to come.”
