The Beeman Hotel, located off Highway 75 and across from Southern Methodist University, will be renamed as The Mockingbird Hotel, according to a Dallas Morning News article.
NewcrestImage, based in Grapevine, acquired the hotel last year, according to a press release. The Beeman Hotel has 296 guest rooms and suites over nine floors.
The hotel, which was built in 1972, previously owned by Convexity Properties and is named after Dallas County pioneer John Beeman, is also being added to Marriott’s Tribute Portfolio collection, according to The Dallas Morning News article. The hotel’s current renovation, which started in March, is expected to be finished this fall. The space was previously renovated a handful of years ago.
“The Beeman is a very high-quality property that offers tremendous upside potential to help drive our ambitious growth goals,” NewcrestImage Managing Partner and CEO Mehul Patel said in the press release at the time of the acquisition. “To further and fully optimize this hotel’s value and profits, we intend to rebrand in the high-end upscale category.”
