YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, May 29, 2018–Marshall Hotels & Resorts, a leading hotel management and services company that operates properties nationwide, today announced the grand opening of the 125-room DoubleTree by Hilton Youngstown Downtown in Ohio. The hotel is owned by NY-based Pan Brothers Associates, Inc.
“Downtown Youngstown is undergoing a tremendous revitalization, making it an ideal location for a brand-new hotel catering to business and leisure travelers to the area,” said Mike Marshall, president and CEO, Marshall Hotels & Resorts. “The former Stambaugh Building has been completely transformed into the downtown area’s newest only upscale, full-service hotel. With its stunning neo-classical architecture, we are confident that it will become not just the destination of choice for travelers, but also a regular neighborhood stop for locals, as well.”
Conveniently located at 44 East Federal Plaza between Cleveland and Pittsburgh, the 12-story hotel is near such area attractions as OH WOW! Children’s Center for Science and Technology, Youngstown State University, Youngstown Business Incubator (YBI), America Makes, Covelli Center, New Riverfront Park and Amphitheater, Stambaugh Auditorium, Butler Museum of American Art, The DeYor Center for Performing Arts, and Mercy Health, St. Elizabeth Downtown Campus and the beautiful Mill Creek Metro Park. Listed on the Historic Registry, the hotel is renowned for the gorgeous marble main floor lobby, elaborate detailed ceiling which has been meticulously restored and terrazzo flooring running throughout the entire building. The ornate cornice at the top of the building is copper and the hotel boasts two floors of large Palladium style windows as well as many other historical details throughout the hotel. The guest rooms and suites are at once modern and classic in design. Hotel amenities include approximately 5,300 square feet of meeting/event space, ideal for events ranging from weddings to corporate meetings, to accommodate up to 150 people.
The hotel also provides a 24-hour business center, fitness center providing weights and cardio equipment, complimentary Wi-Fi and Hilton’s Made Market for “to-go” food options. In addition to the warm DoubleTree Cookie welcoming each guest receives upon entry, the hotel provides a full complement of services and DoubleTree by Hilton brand amenities, including the Wake Up DoubleTree BreakfastTM, an assortment of gourmet in-room tea and coffee offerings by The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® and a refreshing array of the Crabtree & Evelyn natural skin and body care line. All room options include complimentary Wi-Fi, small refrigerator, coffee maker, an HDTV, a large working desk, plush top linens and deluxe bath products.
Guests are invited to dine at Bistro 1907, by Mark Canzonetta. The name is a tribute to the year renowned architect Albert Kahn’s design was brought to life. “It’s going to be urban, modern, and a throwback to a 1907 Parisian bistro," Canzonetta said. "We're going to have an extensive wine wall and what’s really cool about it: we have a library ladder that goes across the whole space." The open kitchen design is a staple of Canzonetta's vision. Bistro 1907 will be serving American food with some unique twists, offering everything from burgers to oysters and a kid’s menu. "The food's going to be dynamic. We're going to take something that you had as a child, we're going to spin it on its ear and make it modern and relevant and unbelievably delicious.”
The new hotel – like all 500+ in the DoubleTree by Hilton portfolio – are part of Hilton Honors, the award-winning guest-loyalty program for Hilton's 14 distinct hotel brands.
