Entertainment, Dining Drive Success at Today’s Retail Center

by David Cohen

Over the course of the last decade, we have seen a major evolution in retail real estate. Super regional malls and enclosed shopping centers, which once dominated the landscape, are being replaced by immersive, open-air centers that provide visitors with more than just a place to shop.  Successful retail centers today are a destination — they provide excellent food and dining, aesthetically pleasing environments with open public space, and entertainment tenants and events that engage shoppers to stay longer, come back frequently and use the center as a hub for creating memories with friends and family.  At the fifth annual Entertainment Experience Evolution conference, which took place at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills on February 12 and 13, the industry gathered together to take a closer look at the keys to success when embracing and implementing this trend at existing centers and new developments across the country.

As demand shifts, opportunity abounds. Gould believes construction and permanent financing will remain active as these operators continue to perfect their communities. Watch the video for more insights on seniors housing finance from Gould.

Best Western Hotels & Resorts Acquires Luxury Hotel Collection WorldHotels

by David Cohen

PHOENIX— Best Western Hotels & Resorts has acquired global hotel brand WorldHotels from Associated Luxury Hotels for an undisclosed price. The brand consists of approximately 300 specialty hotels and resorts around the world and 31 in the United States.  WorldHotels will maintain its distinct personality while benefiting from Best Western’s e-commerce platform, partnerships, loyalty program and global distribution network. The acquisition marks another move by Best Western into soft-brand hotels, an affiliation in which a hotel relies primarily on its individual identity rather than that of the larger hotel chain. A number of global hotel chains have launched soft brands in recent years, including the Ascend Collection by Choice Hotels International and Marriott International’s Autograph Collection.  Best Western isn’t the only hotelier that recently purchased a luxury brand. InterContinental Hotels Group acquired Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas for $300 million on Feb. 13.  “There is tremendous synergy between Best Western and WorldHotels,” says David Kong, CEO of Best Western Hotels & Resorts. “By joining forces in this new partnership, we will create competitive advantages for both companies.”  The acquisition of WorldHotels was completed last week. The move expands Best Western’s portfolio of offerings to include upscale and luxury segments.  Phoenix-based Best Western Hotels & …
