COVINGTON, Ky., Jan. 2, 2020 — Commonwealth Hotels is excited to announce the hiring of two outstanding associates for the Tampa area’s newest hotel. Leilani Martinez and Michelle Cardamone, two tenured industry leaders, are joining the Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa/Riverview/Brandon staff as the General Manager and Director of Sales and Marketing respectively.

Martinez moves to the Hampton Inn & Suites after spending the last year-and-a-half with Commonwealth as the Assistant General Manager at the Hilton Garden Inn Tampa/Riverview. A 25-year hospitality veteran, she has over a decade of experience as a General Manager at various Hilton properties. Martinez’s knowledge of the market and Hilton systems will surely help the new property find early operation and sales success.

Cardamone joins Commonwealth after an extensive career as a hospitality sales leader in the Tampa market. Working at assorted Hilton properties since 2005, Michelle has shown consistent ability to hit and exceed revenue expectations no matter the property. Her demonstrated career growth points to yet another hotel that will succeed in the Tampa market under her leadership.

“We are thrilled to have Leilani and Michelle in place at Commonwealth’s newest build,” Mike Hook, Area Director of Operations and General Manager at the Hilton Garden Tampa/Riverview, said. “With their leadership we know this hotel will become a favored destination for business and leisure travelers alike.”

Located at 10240 Causeway Blvd., Tampa, FL 33619, the Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa/Riverview/Brandon is projected to open in late February in 2020. A 124-room property boasting over 1,000 Sq. Ft. of meeting space, the hotel will feature proximity to various business centers, complimentary breakfast and free WiFi for all guests.
