The hotel will feature 160 guest rooms including 10 suites and will offer signature Hilton Garden Inn brand attributes including complimentary Wi-Fi, 24-hour business center, a full service restaurant, evening room service, the ‘Pavilion’ lobby which features a comfortable living room area and the Pavilion Pantry shop offering a selection of delicious ready made meals, beverages and snacks.
