MAY 5th, 2013
A public ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, May 2nd, marked the official opening of the 8-story Best Western Premier Waterfront Hotel, which had been completely renovated by Hoffman.
All interior spaces were renovated in the 131,000 square foot hotel, which features 176 guestrooms including three executive and five whirlpool/fireplace suites. The hotel also offers state-of-the-art meeting and banquet facilities; a fitness center and swimming pool area; lobby and offices spaces; an outdoor patio with capacity for 100 guests; and a full-menu restaurant, the Ground Round at River’s Edge.
The opening of the full-service business hotel in Oshkosh will provide an economic boast to the area as it attracts conventions and creates jobs.
The hotel is owned by Oshkosh Investors, LLC, which is comprised of partners John Pfefferle (Pfefferle Companies, Inc.), Richard Batley (RB Hospitality), and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Foundation.
Hoffman began the project with primary deconstruction of the hotel’s interior in May of 2012.
