Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), one of the world's largest hotel companies, in collaboration with HOS Management, broke ground yesterday afternoon at the future home of the Cambria Hotel Savannah Historic District. Located at 321 Montgomery St., the 103-room, six-story property is slated to open in 2019.

Situated in the heart of the city, the Cambria Hotel Savannah Historic District will feature a rooftop bar, locally-inspired interior and exterior designs, local art, multi-function meeting space, a business center, and state-of-the-art fitness center. The hotel will also have contemporary onsite dining, serving a menu comprised of area specialties, signature cocktails and local craft beers, as well as freshly prepared grab-and-go gourmet salads and sandwiches.

Savannah is home to the largest National Historic Landmark District in the United States and includes the Savannah Historic District, the Savannah Victorian Historic District, and many parks, offering guests the opportunity to learn more about the area and take in the natural scenery. The property is just minutes from world-class shopping, dining, museums, and entertainment attractions, including the Savannah Civic Center and the SCAD Museum of Art, and is in close proximity to Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation.

"The Cambria Hotel Savannah Historic District will be the first Cambria hotel in my home state of Georgia, and I cannot think of a better city to introduce the brand than in Savannah. Full of rich history and culture, Savannah attracts millions of business and leisure travelers each year and the Cambria hotel groundbreaking helps us plant our legacy in the epicenter of it all," said Janis Cannon, senior vice president, upscale brands at Choice Hotels. "HOS Management has a deep understanding of Savannah and we're thrilled to team up with them and enter this important and growing market by providing guests with a uniquely local upscale experience."
