"Our mission has always been to provide a stellar experience for each of our guests and exceed their expectations," said Mike Jacobson, owner and general manager of the Econo Lodge in Rochester. "Each decision we've made for our hotel has been focused on achieving that mission and ensuring that each guest feels at home throughout their stay."
The Hotel of the Year Award is presented by the Choice Hotels Owners Council each year to a property that consistently demonstrates lodging excellence. Nominees for this prestigious award are recognized as the top properties within the brand.
"The Hotel of the Year award is given to hotels that demonstrate a commitment to exceptional customer service, an area in which the Econo Lodge hotel in Rochester exceeds the norm," said Stephen P. Joyce, president and chief executive officer for Choice Hotels International. "This hotel consistently demonstrates operational excellence and we are thrilled to recognize their continued efforts and highlight them as a valued member of the Choice Hotels family."
In 2013, the Econo Lodge Rochester underwent significant improvements to ensure the continued satisfaction of their guests, including the addition of an elevator, a fitness room and business center. The 62 room property also boasts free Wi-Fi access, healthy and hearty breakfast options and in-room coffee, refrigerators and microwaves. Given the hotel's proximity to the local Mayo Clinic, a number of the guests who visit the Econo Lodge are former patients and families of patients. The property has taken a number of steps to ensure their comfort, including free shuttle service to the Mayo Clinic complex and a partnership with a local nursing service to provide outpatient care for an additional fee.
