PHILADELPHIA-A 248-room hotel opened today at 1200 Arch St. near the Pennsylvania Convention Center here.

The $60-million hotel is the 20th and largest Home2 Suites opened thus far for the two-year-old hotel chain, according to the Philadelphia Business Journal. The Wurzak Hotel Group and the Parkway Corp. of Philadelphia built the hotel that is owned by a joint venture of DoveHill Partners, Parkway and the Glenmont Capital Management LLC.

“The project was the culmination of a public/private effort to add hotel rooms in the city and hundreds of new jobs for residents,” says Robert Zuritsky, president of Parkway. “We were gratified to have the generous support from the state and city for what was our first mixed-use hotel and retail development.” See story in the Philadelphia Business Journal.
