SPOKANE, WA—RLHC (Red Lion Hotels Corporation) plans to build its 10th location for the Hotel RL brand in downtown Houston.
“The downtown area is a hub for sports, leisure and entertainment, thus an ideal setting for the Hotel RL brand,” said Brian Quinn, SVP and chief franchise officer, RLHC. “We see artistic components like the Living Stage and our signature coffeehouse experience aligning well with guests and the local community.”
