HOUSTON-The Boston-based Charlesbank Capital Partners LLC and Winston Hotels Inc., a Raleigh, NC-headquartered REIT, have shelled out $10 million for the 190-room Best Western Park Place Suites at 1400 Old Spanish Trail near the Medical Center. In second quarter 2004, the hotel will be re-flagged to the SpringHill Suites by Marriott brand.

The JV plans to immediately sink $5 million into renovating the property. A Charlesbank spokeswoman tells GlobeSt.com that the partners have financed up to 65% of the acquisition and renovation costs through GE Capital, the details of which weren’t available by publication time. The property was sold by Amgreen Partners of San Antonio, which acquired the hotel in June 2000.

The Cleveland-based Concord Hospitality Enterprises Co., which has a standing relationship with Winston and Charlesbank and has a 13% minority stake in the hotel, sourced the deal and took it to the JV. With the sale now closed, Concord is the hotel’s new operator.
