Meyer Jabara Hotels Expands Third-Party Management Footprint Westward
Danbury, Conn. - Meyer Jabara Hotels has taken over management of the 84-room Holiday Inn Express & Suites Carson City, Nev., located at 4055 N. Carson Street. The deal marks the hotel ownership and third-party management company's second hotel in Nevada. MJH began its westward expansion in November 2024 with the acquisition of Griffin Hotel Management. Since that time, the company's portfolio has also grown into Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona.
It was a match made in heaven – and great timing, said Sonia Lee Sohn, co-general manager of Leeward Real Estate Investments, owner of the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Carson City. She explained that Leeward was seeking additional upside amid post-Covid market sluggishness, and the company already knew what Meyer Jabara Hotels could do.
We've had first-hand experience with Meyer Jabara Hotels through its operation of a hotel we own near Syracuse, N.Y., Sohn said. It was through that partnership we first met Eric Churchill, Meyer Jabara Hotels chief operating officer. Leeward was very impressed with his specific operations know-how, along with the company's cut-to-the-chase problem-solving style.
With a 48-year history of operating best-in-class hotels, Justin Jabara, president of Meyer Jabara Hotels, said the company prides itself on running third-party managed hotels as if it owns them. We've done quite well for the ownership group already, Jabara said, and we are pleased to assist them with this asset. It has allowed us to add another exceptional hotel to our portfolio and grow in the Nevada market.
Great Location, Rates & Amenities
The Holiday Inn Express & Suites Carson City stands just blocks away from Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center and less than 30 miles from Reno, Nevada, and the Jewel of the Sierras, Lake Tahoe. The property welcomes corporate and leisure travelers, offering free breakfast, well-equipped fitness and business centers, and complementary lobby coffee. Additionally, hotel guests can access exclusive rates through the Carson Tahoe Hospital.
Among Meyer Jabara Hotels' first tasks was finding and hiring a proven general manager. Dustin Lambert was selected to oversee the hotel. From the onset of his appointment, the hotel saw immediate improvement in occupancy, staffing, and team culture adoption. In less than two months, Jabara said, the hotel began performing quite well, as we expected.
Short-term, ownership has tasked MJH with increasing market share, RevPAR, and profitability. With new competition entering the Carson City market, Sohn said, we are relying heavily on Meyer Jabara Hotels to enable us to become a leading hotel in the area, building long-term relationships with corporate clients and the Nevada government.
To help the property stand out, a soon-to-be completed interior renovation will be followed by an exterior 'glowup,' which is scheduled for completion by year's end.
