Hilton Deerfield Beach Florida

 
McLean, VA � April 15, 2005 � Molinaro Koger announced today their role as advisor to Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:HOT), in the sale of the Hilton Hotel Deerfield Beach, Florida.  The eight-story 221-room hotel was originally acquired in 1997 by SLT Realty Limited Partnership, an affiliate of Starwood, from Merv Griffin Holdings.  The 20-year-old property was purchased by CS Hospitality LLC, a Wisconsin Limited Liability Company.  Prism Management Company has been engaged to manage the hotel.

�The South Florida lodging market continues to attract significant investor attention given the positive lodging fundamentals together with certain barriers to entry.  Molinaro Koger has recently sold 10 lodging assets between Orlando and Key West, Florida, and has received noteworthy pricing given investor focus on this geographic region,� commented Bill Stadler, Managing Director of Molinaro Koger.

The Deerfield Beach Hilton is situated at the southern end of Palm Beach County abutting the affluent community of Boca Raton and within two miles of the Atlantic Coast beaches.  The hotel features a resort atmosphere and proximity to five golf courses.
