WHIPPANY, N.J. — HFF has arranged $38.9 million in acquisition financing for the Hanover Marriott, an eight-story, 353-room hotel in Whippany, located about 50 miles west of New York City. HFF worked on behalf of Clarion Partners to secure a six-year, fixed-rate loan through a national life insurance company. The Hanover Marriott is located at 1401 Mount Pleasant Ave. near Interstate 287. The property underwent a $15 million renovation in 2011, which included a redesign of its main restaurant and lobby, guestrooms, bathrooms and corridor renovations, pool and fitness center upgrades and building system improvements. Steven Klein and John Bourret of HFF represented the borrower in the transaction.
