Augusta Growth Leads Hotel Developer to Consider More Construction
Wednesday, February 17th, 2016
The developer of Augusta’s Residence Inn Marriott and the proposed SpringHill Suites Marriott near the intersection of Marks Church and Wheeler roads says the city’s economic growth is encouraging it to consider building more hotels in the future.
Ramesh Gokal, the president of Warner Robins, Ga.-based Peach State Hospitality LLC, said major investments such as Fort Gordon’s expanded cybersecurity missions and Plant Vogtle’s reactor construction are helping generate year-round business in an industry that has historically spiked during Masters Week.
