Overview

When you choose Cobblestone Hotels, whether you build a new hotel or convert an existing property, you will feel the difference immediately. Unlike many other franchisors, Cobblestone Hotels cares about their franchisees. We work hard every day to support our properties. This is where we are different. Most other brands slap a sign on your property and leave. Cobblestone Hotels provides onsite, classroom, and webinar training as well as support before and after you open the doors as one of our properties. With over a hundred and fifty years of experience in the hospitality industry invested in the Cobblestone Hotels Executive Team, if it happens, we have been through it, and that is a tremendous asset to any franchisee. Working with people that have been van drivers, housekeepers, to overseeing fifty or more hotels in a management role, Cobblestone Hotels offers all, and in many cases more, of the services and support that other franchisors offer but at a fraction of the price. Our strength is in our differences and we have many of them.
