Local Women-Owned Business Receives National Recognition
Growing St. Petersburg-Based Hotel Management Company Featured in National Publication.
- Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL (1888PressRelease) October 09, 2013 - Sky Hospitality, a leading hotel management company based in St. Petersburg, FL, is honored to have been featured in Hotel Business Magazine, the leading publication in the hotel business industry. Sky Hospitality manages hotels throughout the country, which include Microtel Inn & Suites, Hampton Inn & Suites and Days Inn & Suites properties.
Sky Hospitality has been recognized repeatedly for their success, the strong team of women behind that success, and their constant growth and expansion. As the recipients of numerous awards from many well-recognized brands such as TripAdvisor and Wyndham, Sky Hospitality is excited about their expansion and the opportunity to announce new contracts and developments. New contracts most recently include the October 2nd agreement to operate a Microtel Inn & Suites under development in Carrollton, OH.
SKY Hospitality is unique in the hotel industry due to the employment of women in a majority of the leadership and executive roles. In a male-dominated field, Sky Hospitality shines as a beacon of diversity and is an encouragement to women everywhere as they pursue their desired careers.
"There is a large presence of males, so for young women in our business, it's important to be visible in leadership roles so they can see what they can aspire to," said Marian Goodman, CEO of Sky Hospitality. "However, we look for nurturing, competitive, detailed and focused individuals, and I don't care what gender they are. Everyone's objective is the same: deliver guest service profitably."
It is that mindset that has propelled Sky Hospitality to achieve such success in the hotel management business. Since their founding in St. Petersburg, FL, Sky Hospitality now is currently developing or operating 22 hotels around the country, many in regions where oil and gas exploration is underway.
The operating hotels are experiencing incredible success as well. After eight of their properties received the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence earlier this year, including two that were named among the Top 25 Bargain Hotels in the World, eight more hotels were recognized at the Wyndham Global Conference as being in the Top 20 among the brand's portfolio of over 300, four of which were among the top five. Six of these properties placed in the Top 20 for the second year in a row, and the Sky-managed Microtel in Zephyrhills, FL was distinguished as having the Front Desk Team of the Year.
Sky Hospitality looks forward to expanding into further areas around the United States as they continue to deliver impeccable service and produce consistently remarkable results. The core values of integrity, trust and respect have led them to become an award-winning hotel management company and a leader in the industry.
