Home2 Suites by Hilton and Residence Inn by Marriott are the newest lodging options in east Montgomery. Company officials, Montgomery Chamber leaders, community members and hotel guests gathered for a festive dual ribbon-cutting Wednesday, Sept. 23, to celebrate the official openings of both properties in the Eastchase area.

Conveniently located just off Interstate 85 at Exit 11, these properties are owned and operated by RAM Hotels—a Columbus, Georgia-based hospitality group with a long-standing presence in the area. The lively afternoon event featured local food trucks and even a few furry friends from the Montgomery Humane Society, highlighting that both properties are happily pet-friendly.

Both extended-stay hotels opened earlier this spring in east Montgomery:

These locations represent the second footprint for both national brands in the city, complementing their downtown sister properties that opened earlier this year.

“We love Montgomery and it’s amazing to do business here. It hasn’t just given us profit; it’s given us family members and team members,” shared Matt Patel, chief operating officer with RAM Hotels.
