[ACCESSWIRE]
LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 8, 2017 / ASAP International Hotel LLC ("ASAP") (OTCQB: ASAE) is pleased to announce the acquisition of the Hilton Houston Galleria Area hotel, located in Houston, Texas. The 293-guestroom hotel was purchased by a new joint venture between Golden Emerald LLC and ASAP, a global investment management company. Acquisition financing was provided by Wells Fargo with assistance from Barry Slatt Mortgage.
The Hotel is located less than 2 miles from the prestigious Galleria Shopping & Business District and just 10 miles from downtown Houston, providing a centralized location - perfect for exploring the city or visiting a local business. Additionally, the hotel is situated less than 3 miles from Chinatown, allowing new ownership to add additional revenues by marketing directly to the Houston Chinese market.
In addition to its proximity to the Galleria Shopping & Business District, the Hotel is about 20 miles from the Bush Intercontinental Airport and about 10 miles from Houston Hobby airport, allowing convenient access and proximity to major transportation hubs.
ASAP will renovate the Hotel from a Hilton to a Doubletree, which we believe is a better fit into the local surrounding community attracting more business and leisure guests.
Jerome Yuan, CIO of ASAP International, stated, "The Doubletree brand and franchise has been a tremendous partner in our company growth. We are excited for continued success with long term partners like Hilton."
