DENVER — Stonebridge Cos., a privately owned, nationally recognized, innovative hotel owner, operator and developer headquartered in Denver, acquired the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Las Vegas Airport, marking Stonebridge’s expansion into the Las Vegas market.
“We are excited to continue our growth with the recent acquisition of the DoubleTree Las Vegas Airport hotel. Our new partnership with TowerBrook Capital Partners and other private investors provides us a tremendous platform for us to achieve our significant growth plans throughout the U.S. and this acquisition is the first of many going forward,” said Tom Brinkman, president and chief operating officer of Stonebridge Cos. “Through our growth, we look forward to not only creating new jobs but also providing our team members exciting new opportunities, and we look forward to welcoming our newest team members at the DoubleTree to our Distinguished Hospitality team here at Stonebridge.”
