HDTV, New Amenities completed at Hampton Inn-Coconut Grove

MIAMI, FL ~ January, 2008 - High definition LG Electronic, 32” flat screen televisions were installed as part of the recently completed renovation at the Coconut Grove Hampton Inn.

    Long an icon for quality service and accommodations at sensible prices, the Coconut Grove hotel continues its mandate of satisfying every guest every time with the implementation of these HDTVs. “We have exceeded the system wide “Make It Hampton” brand initiative” stated Geovanny Bejar, General Manager, “A desirable bonus greets our guests in all 136 guest rooms. This renovation undertaking encompasses upgrades in numerous décor, amenity and feature areas of the more than 1,450 participating Hampton Inns nationwide”.

    Reaching beyond the corporate requirements is nothing new at the Coconut Grove hotel. The attention to detail and its prime location are just two of the reasons that Coconut Grove Hampton Inn has enjoyed an impressive degree of customer loyalty. According to Bejar, “Our clientele deserve the best, which is why they stay with us, and why we added the upgraded features. A positive guest experience is our major concern¬–a superior, rewarding and memorable experience– and that is what we give them.”

    The renovation project at the Coconut Grove Hampton Inn includes an expanded hot breakfast buffet, plus an “On the Go” bagged take-along breakfast option. New art and design improvements are evident in the lobby and corridors, while guests enjoy thoughtful new touches such as easy-to-program alarm clocks and spacious showers. The most widely appreciated aspect of the national brand initiative has been the “Cloud Nine” bedding package which include thick, luxurious mattress and comforter, specialty pillows and high-end linens. All of this is included in the Coconut Grove location’s improvements.

    The new HDTV is part of an overall beyond-the-brand philosophy adopted by the management team. Regional Manager, Howard Wolfson, noted, “These changes will be a pleasant surprise for returning guests as well as new patrons. Our philosophy is to offer guests special considerations long before other hotels in our market level and location. We were one of the first to offer free wired and wireless high-speed Internet in all of our guest rooms. Now, that very important benefit to guests is available in the lobby and other common areas. As always, we offer our guests extras, such as free parking, that are very hard to find at this price point in such a prime location. Both business and leisure travelers in South Florida are very receptive to the quality, value, and consistency of Coconut Grove’s Hampton Inn.”

    The Coconut Grove Hampton Inn is located at 2800 SW 28th Terrace, in the heart of one of South Florida’s most celebrated, scenic neighborhoods, close to Cocowalk, the Streets of Mayfair and other attractions.
