White Plains”™ newest hotel, the Cambria Suites, has opened to guests.
At 250 Main St., the 130-unit, all-suite hotel is part of a mixed-use development that includes 35,000 square feet of retail and two floors of underground parking.
Constructed as part of a joint venture between Meyer Jabara Hotels and franchisor Choice Hotels International Inc., the development was estimated to cost $37 million when ground was broken in 2012. The eight-story hotel was built on the former site of an A&P supermarket that was demolished in 2011.
“The opening of the Cambria hotel and suites White Plains is an integral part to our continued expansion into top-tier markets,” said Michael Murphy, senior vice president of upscale brands for Choice Hotels International, in a statement. “We’re seeing tremendous growth in the New York area; in fact, this hotel is the first property to open in the New York market with two others currently in development in New York City.”
“We are excited to open the doors of this unique hotel and introduce the Cambria brand to the White Plains market,” said William A. Meyer, chairman of Meyer Jabara. “I know that in partnership with Choice Hotels we will deliver the quality service and supreme guest experience that travelers expect from Cambria hotels and suites while setting a sophisticated standard for all future Cambria hotels.”
