BELLEVUE, WA—Pineapple Hospitality Company, a hotel management company headquartered here, has entered into the San Diego hotel market.
Pineapple Hospitality Company purchased a hotel property on Sixth Ave., in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter. Currently in the midst of conversion, the hotel will open under the name Hotel Z. At this time, the hotel is taking reservations for stays beginning Aug. 1.
Hotel Z is Pineapple Hospitality’s second property in California. In addition to The Hotel California in San Francisco, it owns and operates four hotels in Seattle and one in Portland, OR.
“We chose San Diego because it complements our core values in that we offer properties in high-demand locations,” said President Michelle Foreman Barnet. “All six of our properties are in strong markets, and this addition gives our Pineapple guests good coverage of the West Coast from the Pacific Northwest to Southern California.”
Hotel Z will open after a total redesign of the original property. Upon opening, Pineapple Hospitality will offer the same service and amenities offered in its other hotels, including complimentary wireless Internet and free bike check-outs, dog-friendly accommodations and a daily cupcake and coffee reception.
The four-story, 96-room property is located in the heart of San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, is three blocks from Petco Park and four blocks from the San Diego Convention Center.
