Pro Con Inc completes $500,000 interior renovation at Homewood Suites

Pro Con Inc has completed an interior renovation project at the Homewood Suites by Hilton, located off Woodbury Ave. near the Commerce Center Corporate Park. The hotel is owned by S & S Hotels of Manchester, and is managed by Colwen Management Inc. of Nashua. Pro Con Inc was the architect and construction manager for the $500,000 project. The interior renovation transformed 16 former two-bedroom suites into 16 one-bedroom suites and 8 executive king studio suites. The 4-story hotel now has 116 spacious studio and one-bedroom suites with fully equipped kitchens, daily complimentary breakfast buffet and an evening reception. The suites offer guests all the comforts and convenience of home for the price of a traditional hotel room. "Based on guest feedback and room occupancy, there was a greater need for studio and one-bedroom suites than for 2-bedroom suites," said Mark Schleicher of S & S Hotels. "The renovation allows the hotel to offer more of the type of suites that our guests are requesting." The hotel's lodge features the guest reception; administrative offices, snack shop, kitchen and guest buffet and great room with and oversized fireplace. It also has a fitness room, an indoor pool, outdoor sports court, a barbecue grill & patio area, and guest laundry facilities. Pro Con Inc. began renovation work in February 2011 and completed the project in April 2011. The hotel is conveniently located just minutes from Interstate 95 and the Maine/New Hampshire border. Pro Con Inc is a leader in design/build for the hotel industry, and the Homewood Suites by Hilton is one of several hotel projects Pro Con Inc. has recently designed and managed including the Downtown Residence Inn by Marriott, Portsmouth, NH; Courtyard by Marriott, Keene NH; and a TownePlace Suites by Marriott in Quonset, RI, which opened in April 2011.
