BRECKSVILLE, OHIO (August 26, 2024) – Independence, Ohio-based builder and developer, DiGeronimo Companies (DiGeronimo), in partnership with real estate developer, Crawford Hoying, and award-winning, international hotel owner, operator and developer, Shaner Hotel Group (Shaner), today announced a new hotel at Valor Acres in the heart of Brecksville, Ohio. Construction on the 136-key hotel is slated to begin early next year, with a projected completion date by late 2026.
“As we continue to elevate the experience at Valor Acres, we’re so appreciative of our partnership with both Crawford Hoying and Shaner Hotel Group,” said Kevin DiGeronimo, principal at DiGeronimo Companies. “Our goal is to create a destination where guests can enjoy world-class hospitality while being surrounded by the destination retail, fine dining, and luxury residential offerings. This boutique hotel is a key addition that enhances the upscale living experience and strengthens the sense of community that Brecksville is known for.”
Situated at the northwest quadrant of Brecksville and Miller Road within Valor Acres, an upscale, modern mixed-use development located on the former Brecksville VA Hospital site, the hotel is just minutes away from two major airports as well as the future Sherwin-Williams 600,000 square foot Research and Distribution Center.
“We value our partnership with CH [Crawford Hoying] and DeG [DiGeronimo] and are looking into expanding our portfolio of first class hotels with them,” said Plato Ghinos, president of Shaner Hotels.
Designed by Meyers+Associates, the AC Hotel by Marriott will encompass more than 80,800 square feet, and will feature a range of amenities, including versatile meeting spaces, a stylish first-floor bar, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and a stunning 6,030 square-foot rooftop bar, all crafted to enhance the guest experience. The partnership for the hotel development began back in March 2022 with Shaner’s introduction of Crawford Hoying to DiGeronimo.
“We are excited to partner with DiGeronimo and Shaner on this new venture in the Brecksville community,” said Bob Hoying, principal at Crawford Hoying. “We look forward to the unique and exceptional experience that the AC Hotel by Marriott will bring to the Valor Acres neighborhood.”
The AC Hotel by Marriott will be developed by DiGeronimo and Crawford Hoying, and co-owned by all parties, with Shaner serving as the hotel operating partner. This new development marks the fifteenth collaborative hotel venture for Crawford Hoying and Shaner, which includes their award-winning AC Hotels in Bridge Park/Dublin and Dayton, Ohio.
