We’re confident she’ll establish the Legacy as a highly desirable and sought-after destination for travelers and guests.”
The Legacy Hotel’s niche is ‘accessible luxury’ for travelers seeking an optimal price/quality balance in selecting accommodations, be it business or pleasure. Legendary Hospitality envisions its hotels as a 21st-century tradition: comfortable, luxurious, yet affordable places that business and leisure travelers return to annually. The Legacy will embody that strategic approach and business model. The Legacy is positioned to become one of the most distinguished hotels in the region while serving as a catalyst for further development within the Legends District.
