Fort Worth Lands State's 2nd Cambria Suites

FORT WORTH-A Keller, TX developer plans to break ground in January on a 118-room Cambria Suites in North Fort Worth. The franchisee of Silver Springs, MD-based Choice Hotels International Inc. is the chain’s first female developer.

Ridgeline Hospitality LLC, led by Dr. Diana Driscoll, will plant the hotel at the corner of Interstate 35 W and Fossil Bluff Drive. Driscoll, whose background runs the CRE gamut, hopes to develop upscale boutique hotels in the Southwest, according to her corporate website. Choice Hotels and Driscoll could not be reached by deadline.

“With this property planned for Fort Worth, we’ve truly reached a milestone for this new brand,” William Edmundson, president of Cambria Suites for Choice Hotels, says in a press release. “This is a great example of having the right product at the right time in the right location.” The chain has 63 Cambria-flagged hotels in its portfolio.
